ABSTRACT:
An ignitor for burning sour oil field gas includes a pair of electrodes which are spaced apart at one end and a source of electrical power for causing arcing between the free ends of the electrodes. In order to ensure a good supply of air to the area of arcing a venturi is provided on each electrode for drawing air into the hollow electrode. The venturi includes a central tube for alignment with the hollow electrode and radially extending tubes for introducing air into the central tube.
