Burner Management and Combustion Control for Renewable Energy Systems
Renewable energy facilities use fired systems to manage variable renewable fuel streams, methane-rich waste gases, gas treatment, fuel conditioning, tail gas oxidation, biomass drying, and thermal conversion processes. Profire helps teams control ignition, fuel delivery, combustion performance, and system visibility across biogas, landfill gas, RNG, waste gas, process heat, and emissions-control applications.

Why Renewable Energy Operations Choose Profire
Safer Combustion for Variable Fuels
Renewable fuels can vary in composition, moisture, contaminants, and heating value. Profire burner management systems help control ignition, flame supervision, permissive checks, and safe shutdown where biogas, landfill gas, biomass gas, or waste-derived streams are involved.
Visibility for Methane, Vapor & Waste Gas Systems
Operators need clear status when a landfill gas flare, biogas combustor, RNG tail gas oxidizer, or renewable fuel boiler trips. Profire supports alarms, event history, diagnostics, data logging, and communications integration so teams can monitor burner status, shutdowns, and combustion equipment performance across methane, vapor, waste gas, and tail gas systems.
Stable Operation Across Heat & Energy Use
Renewable energy sites may use combustion for process heat, gas treatment, drying, CHP, and thermal conversion. Profire helps manage fuel delivery, air control, temperature control, and combustion performance as operating conditions change.
Support from Pilot to Commercial Scale
Renewable projects often involve OEM packages, gas cleanup equipment, emerging process designs, retrofit scopes, and site-specific controls. Profire supports application review, engineered controls, startup support, training, and long-term serviceability.

Renewable Energy Frequently Asked Questions
What process heating is used in renewable energy facilities?
Process heating supports biogas use, fuel conditioning, biomass drying, biofuel refining, CHP, thermal conversion, and emissions-control systems.
Where are burner management systems used in renewable energy applications?
Burner management systems are used on fired equipment that needs controlled ignition, flame supervision, permissive checks, and safe shutdown.
This can include flares, combustors, oxidizers, boilers, dryers, heaters, kilns, and thermal conversion support systems.
Why do biogas and landfill gas systems need reliable combustion control?
Biogas and landfill gas can vary in methane content, moisture, pressure, contaminants, sulfur compounds, siloxanes, and heating value. Reliable combustion control helps operators manage ignition, flame stability, shutdown response, and burner visibility when using these gases for heat, CHP, or process support, or when destroying them through flares, combustors, or oxidizers.
How does combustion control support RNG production?
RNG projects may use fired equipment around gas cleanup, dehydration, sulfur or siloxane removal, CO₂ removal, fuel conditioning, tail gas oxidation, flare backup, and process heat. Combustion control helps operators manage ignition, burner performance, temperature control, emissions-control equipment, shutdown response, and visibility across RNG support systems.
What renewable energy fired equipment does Profire support?
Profire supports renewable energy fired equipment such as combustors, flares, thermal oxidizers, boilers, fuel conditioning heaters, dryers, kilns, biofuel heaters, and biochar thermal systems.
The right solution depends on the fuel stream, application, burner configuration, draft type, communication needs, and site requirements.
Can Profire support biochar, biomass, or pyrolysis applications?
Yes. Profire can support combustion-related equipment around biochar, biomass, and pyrolysis applications where burner management, fuel delivery, thermal oxidizers, off-gas combustion, dryers, or supporting control systems are part of the project scope.
What should renewable energy projects consider when upgrading burner controls?
Renewable energy projects should consider fuel variability, burner configuration, existing equipment, gas treatment systems, shutdown requirements, communications, documentation, and long-term support.
Profire helps teams evaluate the burner management and combustion-control scope so upgrades can support safer startup, clearer visibility, reliable fired-equipment operation, and easier serviceability.
