ABSTRACT:
A gas turbine combustor apparatus utilized in conjunction with a biomass fueled pressurized gasifier, the fuel gas and primary air injected into a primary combustion chamber at independently controlled rates in order to provide a rich burn of the fuel gas at a constant temperature which inhibits formation of nitrogen oxides, the combustion product of the primary combustion chamber flowing downstream through a chamber combustion nozzle and then to a secondary combustion chamber, a secondary air injected into the secondary combustion chamber at an independently controlled rate in order to provide a lean burn of the combustion product of the primary combustion chamber, also inhibiting the formation of nitrogen oxides. The combustion product of this lean burn being diluted by injection of a tertiary air independently controlled, the diluted combustion product expelled to a land based stationary turbine. The combustor designed to efficiently burn low BTU biomass fuel gas.
