In 1977, the Lampoldshausen engineers developed a rocket burner with significantly reduced soot and pollutant emissions. It quickly became clear that this new burner could be used not only in space flight but also, for example, in heating systems for private households. The newly developed oil burner used hot gases to vaporize the oil mist at the atomizing nozzle. This increased the burner's efficiency and significantly reduced soot formation and pollutant emissions.
