About The Company
Lean Flame, Inc. is a combustor technology development and commercialization company, which has achieved a number of significant and disruptive technological break-throughs in combustion technology.
Lean Flame has developed advanced combustor technology, which for most installed gas turbines, can achieve NOx emissions less than 2 ppm and CO emissions less than 5 ppm, with zero particulates, from 50% to 100% load and less than 1 ppm Nox and between 7.5 ppm and 12 ppm CO from 10 to 50% load with zero particulates. These ultra low emission levels were achieved with both natural gas and liquid fuel. The main characteristic of the Lean Flame Combustor is its breakthrough in combustion stability which permits the burning of ultra lean fuel mixtures. Lean Flame's combustor can operate at equivalence ratios as low as .3 compared to .5 with DLN. A second important characteristic is that the Combustor has lower combustor pressure losses, compared to DLN technology, which improves overall turbine efficiency and reduces fuel consumption by a minimum of 2%.
Lean Flame successfully retrofited its advanced combustor in a Sunstrand T-62 turbine. The company also successfully rig tested its Combustor for an 85 MW GE 7E turbine, achieving less than 2 ppm NOx and less than 2 ppm CO.
Lean Flame is targeting the gas turbine retrofit aftermarket, which is being driven by new, more stringent emission regulations and the need for more fuel efficient parts and technologies. Lean Flame's Combustor is multi-fuel flexible and ideally suited to burn low BTU fuels. Lean Flame's combustor is hydrogen and syngas ready at extremely low emission levels.
Our Mission
To commercialize Lean Flame's advanced combustor technology - the most advanced combustion technology available - for both large industrial turbines and microturbines.
Lean Flame is seeking utility and IPP companies to jointly commercialize Lean Flame's proprietary combustor technology.
