Abstract
The invention relates to a process for the combustion of a fuel in a burner (1) of the type comprising at least one injector (2), which injector includes at least an inner first oxidizer feed passage (8), an intermediate fuel feed passage (9) externally surrounding the first oxidizer feed passage, and an outer second oxidizer feed passage (10) externally surrounding the fuel feed passage. The fuel feed passage (9) is supplied so that the velocity of the fuel exiting this passage is between approximately 1 and 15 m/s. Application to the supply of heat in processes for the production of materials.
