2. Oil burner - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_burner

   An oil burner is a part attached to an oil furnace, water heater, or boiler. [1] It provides the ignition of heating oil/biodiesel fuel used to heat either air or water via a heat exchanger . The fuel is atomized into a fine spray usually by forcing it under pressure through a nozzle which gives the resulting flame a specific flow rate, angle ...

3. Waste heat recovery unit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waste_heat_recovery_unit

   Economizer: In case of process boilers, waste heat in the exhaust gas is passed along a recuperator that carries the inlet fluid for the boiler and thus decreases thermal energy intake of the inlet fluid. Heat pumps: Using an organic fluid that boils at a low temperature means that energy could be regenerated from waste fluids.

4. Recuperator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recuperator

   In many types of processes, combustion is used to generate heat, and the recuperator serves to recuperate, or reclaim this heat, in order to reuse or recycle it. The term recuperator refers as well to liquid-liquid counterflow heat exchangers used for heat recovery in the chemical and refinery industries and in closed processes such as ammonia-water or LiBr-water absorption refrigeration cycle.

5. Waste oil - Wikipedia

   Waste oil furnace is a type of furnace used for heating purposes and is fueled by used oil that is free of hazardous contaminants, as described by the EPA. Waste-oil-fueled boilers can be used for various industrial purposes as well as heating.

6. Vegetable oil fuel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vegetable_oil_fuel

   Waste vegetable oil that has been filtered. Vegetable oil can be used as an alternative fuel in diesel engines and in heating oil burners. When vegetable oil is used directly as a fuel, in either modified or unmodified equipment, it is referred to as straight vegetable oil (SVO) or pure plant oil (PPO).

7. Fuel oil - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_oil

   Number 1 fuel oil is a volatile distillate oil intended for vaporizing pot-type burners and high-performance/clean diesel engines. [8] It is the kerosene refinery cut that boils off immediately after the heavy naphtha cut used for gasoline. This fuel is commonly known as diesel no. 1, kerosene, and jet fuel. Former names include: coal oil ...
