BENNINGHOVEN MULTI JET burner

Time now for a change of generation.

BENNINGHOVEN is a global market leader in burners for asphalt mixing plants and a manufacturer of multi-fuel burners for up to 4 fuels. The complete know-how and wealth of experience from over 70 years of burner competence support the development of unique burners with outstanding properties.

This success story now continues with the BENNINGHOVEN MULTI JET burner. The innovative, pioneering burner technology combines the benefits of the previous generation EVO JET in terms of durability and robustness with technical upgrades, a new burner control system – the MULTI JET Control – and the option of using new types of fuel. A new generation that impresses thoroughly in terms of sustainability and economy.

Flexible and simultaneous use of four fuels in three different physical states

  • Solids ring / gas nozzles
    • Wood dust
    • Coal dust
    • Bio coal dust
    • H₂
  • Gas ring
    • Natural gas
    • Biogas
  • 3 ring nozzles
    • DME
    • LPG
  • Central nozzle
    • Light oil
    • Bio oil
    • BtL (biomass to liquid)
    • HVO

This increases operational reliability and economic efficiency as the optimum, e.g. the cheapest or most environmentally friendly, energy source can be used at any given time.

Mixed use of fuels

A special feature of the MULTI JET burners is the use of mixed fuels, allowing for example the simultaneous use of up to four fuels through separate nozzles. Asphalt producers benefit from the high level of flexibility when selecting fuels. The option of using multiple fuels allows plant owners to react to the availability and price development of the energy sources.

On-the-fly fuel changes

Fuels can be switched on the fly, without shutdown or downtime. This system ensures a reliable supply with different fuels, offering plant owners a high level of flexibility when selecting the most cost effective and most readily available energy source. This significantly contributes to lowering operating costs.

MULTI JET fuels

BENNINGHOVEN MULTI JET burners enable reliable use of renewable and therefore future-proof energy sources.

Hydrogen | BtL fuel | wood dust | LPG / natural gas | oil | coal dust

Many markets are preparing to discontinue the use of coal, while systems running on oil are also increasingly subject to tighter regulations and restrictions. With technologies from BENNINGHOVEN, plant owners can modernize their plants and ensure the continued operation of their site.
