Essential to the strategy of reducing Greenhouse Gases (especially CO₂) is maximising the efficiency and at the same time reducing other emissions.  During the last 20 years, steps have been taken to develop such technology.  High Temperature Air Combustion Technology holds the potential to overcome the limitation imposed by conventional combustion using highly pre-heated air.  Research shows that this technology can simultaneously reduce CO₂ and NOx emissions.

Issues related to the exploitation of this technology to various industrial applications will still require further resolution.  In co-operation with our Swedish Flame Research Committee, we would like to invite our readers to participate and join in the discussion to resolve these issues…
