1. Tirrill burner allows adjustment of both the air supply and the gas supply.

2. Air hole is a hole that allows the passage of air.


3. The collar, which is located at the bottom of the barrel, can be adjusted to control the air intake
and the heat of the flame.
4. Inlet Gas means Off-Gas and other Gas that is Processed at the Plant for the extraction of Plant
Products and certain incidental non-hydrocarbon materials.
5. A barrel is a round bulging vessel of greater length than breadth that is usually made of staves
bound with hoops and has flat ends of equal diameter.
6. The base is the bottom support of anything; that on which a thing stands or rests: a metal base

7. A gas valve is a device used to regulate the flow of oil and gas.
8. Combustion is a chemical process in which a substance reacts rapidly with oxygen and gives off
heat.
9. Complete combustion occurs in an unlimited supply of air, oxygen in particular. Also, complete
combustion is also known as clean combustion. Here the hydrocarbon will burn out completely
with the oxygen and leave only two byproducts, water, and carbon dioxide. An example of this is
when a candle burn.
10. Incomplete combustion occurs when a combustion reaction occurs without a sufficient supply of
oxygen. The byproducts are Carbon monoxide (CO), Water (H2O) and Carbon.
11. In the insufficient supply of Oxygen or air, the fuels burn incompletely producing mainly a yellow
flame. The yellow flame is caused by the glow of hot unburnt Carbon particles produced due to
incomplete combustion of fuel. This bright yellow flame which produces light is called luminous
flame.
12. A non-luminous flame is A blue colored flame which produces very little light is called non-
luminous flame. In other words when a fuel undergoes complete combustion it is non-luminous
flame.
