Document Description
GTI proposes to install a demonstration of a commercial size prototype flex-flame burner in California. Thorock Metals in Compton, California hosted the early demonstration tests. Field demonstration is slated to be conducted in year two and will consist of parametric and life-cycle tests to optimize operating conditions, to confirm burner reliability, and to collect date on decreased emissions and energy use. The original total cost of this project was $480,000 in 2005 and the Public Purpose Natural Gas RD&D program's contribution was $360,000 (75%). After augmentation the total cost to PEIR will be $384,573.
