The SMS ECOFlame+ family is suitable for multiple lean gases, from the lowest heating value such as blast furnace gas (BFG) to the highest such as natural gas (NG) or propane. The burner operates in both modulating and X-Pact® DigiMod Control modes, allowing for precise control over combustion processes. With power capacities ranging from 500 kW to 5,000 kW, the SMS ECOFlame+ is suitable for various industrial applications. Its design promotes low maintenance requirements and high fuel flexibility, making it a reliable choice for organizations focused on sustainability and operational excellence.

Key features

ECOFlame+ Hydrogen Hybrid HY2

The Hydrogen Hybrid HY2 configuration offers additional fuel flexibility. It can be operated with hydrogen, coke oven gas, or natural gas with any hydrogen content (up to 100%) in the fuel mixture.

ECOFlame+ Regenerative

The regenerative configuration is equipped with a heat recovery system that uses the waste gases to preheat the combustion air up to 1,100°C. In this way, energy efficiency and high environmental performance are achieved.

ECOFlame+ Dual configuration

The dual configuration has been specifically designed for exploiting lean gases like BFG, BOF or syngas. The lean gas will be used in the flame mode while a separate set of lances for flame and flameless mode will be fed by natural gas. The dual flame technology allows to use the full power of the available lean gas and to inject the required amount of natural gas only when the power or flow of the syngas is not sufficient to sustain the heat demand of the specific combustion control zone.
