Abstract

A burner flame stabilizer which circumferentially stages the air to form circumferentially-spaced fuel rich and fuel lean zones for lowering of NO.sub.x is described. A circumferential solid fuel stager is described, which operates with a fuel stabilizer to provide increased dwell time for coal particles volatilization in a recirculation zone established by the flame stabilizer. Various embodiments are described.
