Process Burner Fundamentals
Course Description
This BTS training course is designed to improve the overall understanding of process burners, define common burners' terminology, and identify the best installation & testing practices. This BTS training course illustrates the proper and safe burner operating procedures including how to increase burner thermal efficiency, reduce pollutant emissions, and provides tools for troubleshooting problems. This training course will highlight: • The fundamentals of combustion and heat transfer • The Burner design, installation, and testing • The burner operation, combustion control, and troubleshooting • Flare system design and operation • Pollutant emissions and combustion safety

Organisational Impact

When the organization invests money in training its employees, employees feel worthy and more loyal. This training will improve essential work-related skills, techniques, and knowledge needed for safe, environmentally sound, and efficient operation of a plant.

Personal Impact

Trained employees tend to benefit both their own careers and the company they work for. The participant will gain better understanding of process burners, define common burners' terminology, identify the best installation and testing practices, follow proper and safe operating procedures, increase burner thermal efficiency, reduce pollutant emissions, and provides tools for troubleshooting problems.
