Abstract

A burner for burning fine coal powder comprising: a fine coal powder nozzle 10 for injecting a mixture of the fine coal powder and air; and air nozzles 11, 12 for injecting air: wherein the sufficient amount of air for complete combustion of the fine coal powder is supplied from the air nozzles; a reducing flame at a high temperature is formed by consuming oxygen rapidly with forming a flame at a high temperature by igniting the fine coal powder rapidly in the vicinity of the outlet of the burner; and an oxidizing flame having an uniform distribution of gas composition in radial direction to the central axis of the burner is formed by mixing the air injected from the air nozzle in the downstream of the reducing flame at the high temperature.
