Services
Burner Management Systems
Forneys Burner Management Systems ensure safe and efficient combustion control in power plants and industrial facilities. These systems automate fuel-air sequencing, monitor flame stability, and comply with NFPA 85/86 standards. With over 450 installations globally, they reduce downtime and enhance operational reliability for coal, gas, and oil-fired systems.
Flame Detectors
Forneys HD Flame Detectors combine infrared and ultraviolet sensors for precise flame discrimination in multi-burner environments. Featuring mobile app integration and Bluetooth connectivity, they provide real-time monitoring and diagnostics, ensuring compliance with safety standards in power generation and petrochemical industries.
Duct Burners
Forneys Duct Burners optimize combined cycle plant efficiency by supplementing turbine exhaust gas with supplemental firing. Designed for harsh environments, these burners improve process air heating and SCR efficiency, with configurations for limited-space applications and fresh-air firing.
Hydrogen Combustion Solutions
Forney develops hydrogen-compatible combustion systems to support decarbonization in power generation. These solutions address hydrogens unique combustion properties, ensuring safe and efficient operation in boilers and turbines while meeting evolving regulatory requirements for low-carbon energy production.
SCR Reheating Systems
Forneys SCR Reheating Systems maintain optimal flue gas temperatures for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) reactors. By preventing catalyst inefficiency during low-load operations, these systems ensure compliance with NOx reduction regulations while minimizing pressure drop and retrofit complexity.
