Ever-lite, a non-toxic fire starter is made from a 4×8 piece of pressed wood fiberboard with alum and cornstarch as binders and made from soft wood, preferably a sycamore fiber, with no creosote. It's then cut into 6″×{fraction (l/2)}″ pieces and dipped into a p-128 (p-2391) paraffin solution at a temperature between 166 and 170 degrees for one second then cooled down. Ever-Lite burns for approximately 7-10 minutes at 35,000 BTU's. The emissions are non-toxic and are safe around children, food, and animals. It can be lit when wet and stay lit in wind or rain. The stick can be extinguished by depriving it of oxygen. Ever-Lite has an indefinite shelf life, will not become unstable, nor flare up, spark, secrete resins or pitch. Ever-Lite is expected to meet the SCAQMD COS standards of California as well as rule 1174.
165 TORCH IGNITER US10217972 2002-08-13 US20040031257A1 2004-02-19 Stephen N. Schmotolocha; Donald H. Morris; Calvin Q. Morrison JR.; Robert J. Pederson
An improved torch igniter for use in devices such as thrust augmenters, gas turbine engines, ramjets, combined-cycle engines and industrial burners. The torch igniter includes a housing with a combustion chamber. Fuel and oxidizer are delivered into the combustion chamber and ignited by an electronic ignition source, such as a plasma jet igniter or a spark igniter, so that an upstream recirculation zone and a downstream recirculation zone are created. The upstream recirculation zone stabilizes and pilots combustion within the combustion chamber, while the downstream recirculation zone augments the combustion event. Byproducts of the combustion event within the torch igniter provide a high mass flux with high thermal energy and strong ignition source radicals that are discharged through a neck portion of the housing and are thereafter employed to initiate a primary combustion event in a primary combustor.
166 Method, apparatus, and ignition device for ignition of inflammable gases from a flare on a flame tower US817567 1997-04-11 US5964586A 1999-10-12 Tom .O slashed.demark; Sjur Dagestad
There are described a method, an apparatus and an ignition pellet for the ignition of combustible gases, for example from a flare or flare tower, where an ignition pellet is launched in a direction toward a region of combustible gas, characterized in that the ignition device is propelled by means of a pressure medium through a guidance tube to the gas cloud region, that the ignition device undergoes a reaction for the purpose of active ignition of the gas in the region, the time for its activation and reaction being predetermined and adapted to the particular flare and application. The reaction of the ignition device is in the form of a shower or cloud of sparks where at least parts of the shower of sparks will strike the cloud of gas. The ignition device is activated somewhere along its path through the tube, possibly at the moment when the ignition device leaves the tube, possibly when the ignition device starts its journey through the tube, or possibly by the fact that the ignition device strikes an object in the vicinity of the flare. The ignition device may be positioned within a trapping device prior to the reaction of the ignition device. The ignition device may be propelled through the guidance tube at a moderate speed, may optionally be stopped during its passage through the tube and may optionally be reversed and returned back into the guidance tube without a reaction taking place.

168 Laser initiated non-linear fuel droplet ignition US455193 1995-05-31 US5673550A 1997-10-07 Jimmy D. Few; James W. L. Lewis
Method and apparatus for igniting an air/fuel spray (26) comprised of fuel droplets. The apparatus includes a coherent optical source (12) for introducing at least one pulse of coherent radiation into the air/fuel spray. The pulse generates free electrons and initiates a development of a plasma within the air/fuel spray. The coherent source maintains the pulse of coherent radiation and pumps the developing plasma to higher energies. The pulse is terminated at a time after the plasma has reached a predetermined energy and before ignition of the air/fuel spray. The non-linear ignition system of the invention employs a gas/vapor interface region at a fuel droplet surface and an electric field that extends from and exists outside of a fuel droplet. Free electrons are accelerated to higher energies by the electric field surrounding the fuel droplet. The accelerated electrons initiate a breakdown near adjacent fuel droplets and the liberation of further free electrons. In a short period of time an avalanche process occurs that creates a high density of free electrons and ions which results in the formation of a plasma.

174 Temperature actuated burner igniter US594811 1984-03-29 US4519774A 1985-05-28 Clifford M. Shedd
A low cost igniter comprising a multi capsule of low strength, non-porous material, such capsule being divided into at least two separate compartments. One of such compartments is filled with a freezable fluid, and another contains an ingredient that will function in the presence of a selected ingredient to bring about combustion. The ingredient in the capsule is disposed in the immediate vicinity of the second ingredient, so that on the occasion of a freezing temperature, the freezable fluid in the compartment of the capsule will freeze and expand, fracturing all components of the capsule substantially simultaneously, thus leading to a combination of the first and second ingredients, as will bring about immediate combustion. When the multi capsule is configured to have two compartments, the second ingredient is contained adjacent the capsule, but when the multi capsule has three compartments, the freezable fluid as well as both ingredients are each sealed in separate compartments of such capsule.
