To meet the technological requirements concerning the efficiency of using the energy of fuel in biomass furnaces and the profitability of implementing new solutions, it is necessary to continuously modify and optimize the existing biomass heating systems. Boiler designs with modern biomass-fuelled burners should be characterized by high energy and environmental efficiency. The amount of the heat obtained indicates the efficiency of the burning process. The quality of the burning process can be evaluated by means of the efficiency of the equipment that burns fuel. The higher the efficiency, the more energy is obtained from burning a unit of fuel. Inadequate technological solutions of heating systems result in elevated emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere and reduction of the efficiency of the combustion process, which generates additional costs of using such systems. However, in this case, one must remember that, besides modern burner designs, minimization of environmental risks also necessitates selection of fuel of the proper quality and a properly selected flue gas exhaust system. This article presents the results of research and development work oriented towards designing and development of a modern, innovative burner for central heating boilers that will ensure high quality of the process of burning pelletized biomass fuels. The scope of pre-implementation research and development work covered: development of a burner design, performance of tests on the burner prototype, development of a control system – burner automation and preparation, and filing of a patent application for the burner.
