Rogue ClearSign Boiler Burner Retrofit Technoeconomic Analysis (TEA)

AGILE: The GET program recently completed project ET23SWG009 to test and quantity the emissions and efficiency improvements of an emerging burner technology as a boiler burner retrofit. The ClearSign Core™ technology is an innovative gaseous fuel combustion technology designed to significantly reduce environmental emissions of nitrogen oxides (Nox), a highly regulated pollutant, in industrial applications. ClearSign Core™ can meet very low levels of emissions required by the most stringent regulations in the country, while enhancing heat transfer characteristics. The ClearSign CoreTM technology consists of air fuel premixing, internal flue gas recirculation (FGR), and their patented distil flame holder technology. They are the only burner company that has this unique combination of those three combustion elements in a fuel burner. The goal of this study is to perform a technoeconomic analysis (TEA) for boiler burner retrofit operations to determine customer savings, payback period, TRC, TSB, and measure possibility of a boiler burner retrofit.
