APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR INHIBITING THE PROPAGATION OF A FLAME FRONT |
摘要 |
<p>Apparatus is described for inhibiting the propagation of a flame front ignited by a pumping mechanism drawing a waste stream from a process chamber. A combustion chamber comprises an inlet for receiving the waste stream exhaust from the pumping mechanism and means for generating a flame for burning a flammable component of the waste stream. A pressure detector detects a pressure at a location through which the waste stream is drawn by the pumping mechanism, and a flame detector detects the presence of a flame in th combustion chamber. A controller regulates the delivery of at least one process fluid to the process chamber if the detected pressure is greater than a pressure above which the flame front can be sustained by the waste stream, or if there is no flame present in the combustion chamber.</p> |
