+Gas / Oxygen
Gas / Oxygen
The MEFKON Oxyfuel burner has been specially developed for high-temperature applications and is characterised by its high efficiency, lowest emissions, ease of maintenance and best controllability. Up to 50% energy and CO2 savings, compared to a gas/air burner system.


Ladle & Converter Preheater
Horizontal heating sytems are used for high speed heating and heat maintaining. These systems are often equipped with a gas/air burner with the MEFKON 2-stage radiation recuperator or with a gas/oxygen burner. Compared to a conventional gas/air burner, a 2-stage radiation recuperator can increase the efficiency of about 20% (learn more). An oxygen burner increases the efficiency of about 50%.
Preheaters are realized either as stationary unit or for several positions. Additionally the burner lid can be designed with maintenance doors for oxygen lancing.
