Claim 8:
9. An evaporator system according to claim 1, the starting sequence includes a step of feeding with electricity the evaporator system and of the controller; wherein the step of feeding with electricity the evaporator system and of the controller is activated by pressing on an activation button present on a control panel of the evaporator system; wherein the starting sequence includes a step where said at least one fan of the air supply system offering the at least one air supply to the combustion chamber, is adjusted to zero; wherein the starting sequence includes a step of opening an access door of the combustion chamber for allowing an introduction of biomass into said combustion chamber; wherein the starting sequence includes a step of closing of the access door of the combustion chamber; wherein the starting sequence comprises a step of confirmation of closing of the access door of the combustion chamber; wherein the step of confirmation of closing of the access door of the combustion chamber is confirmed by an operator of the evaporator system by pressing a button of the control panel; wherein the step of confirmation of closing of the access door of the combustion chamber is detected automatically by a door detection device of the controller of the evaporator system; wherein the starting sequence includes a step wherein said at least one fan of the air supply system offering the at least one air supply to the combustion chamber, is operated at a preestablished value during at least one given range of time; wherein said at least one given range of time includes at least two given ranges of time; wherein said at least one given range of time includes at least three given ranges of time; wherein the given range of time is substantially equivalent in terms of time to that of a preceding range of time; wherein the given range of time lasts a predetermined period; wherein the given range of time is different in terms of time to that of a preceding range of time; wherein for the given range of time, said at least one fan of the air supply system offering the at least one air supply to the combustion chamber, is operated at a preestablished value being greater than that of a preceding given range of time; wherein the starting sequence is automatically stopped by the controller of the evaporator system when the operating temperature in the combustion chamber reaches a given setpoint temperature having been previously entered by an operator of the evaporator system into the control panel of the controller; wherein the controller automatically allows the evaporator system to pass to another operating sequence when the operating temperature in the combustion chamber reaches the given setpoint temperature; wherein said at least one fan of the air supply system offering the at least one air supply to the combustion chamber, is operated at a preestablished value being greater than that of a preceding given range of time, and during at least one additional given range of time, until the operating temperature in the combustion chamber reaches the given setpoint temperature; wherein the at least one additional given range of time is preceded by an introduction of biomass in the combustion chamber; wherein said at least one fan of the air supply system offering the at least one air supply to the combustion chamber, is operated at a preestablished value being greater than that of a previous given range of time, and during at least one subsequent given range of time, until the operating temperature in the combustion chamber reaches the given setpoint temperature; wherein said at least one subsequent given range of time is preceded by an introduction of biomass in the combustion chamber; wherein the air supply system includes at least one fan selected from the group consisting of a fan of primary air, a fan of secondary air and a fan of intermediate air; wherein the starting sequence includes a step where the fan of primary air, the fan of secondary air and the fan of the intermediate air, are operated at different preestablished values, during several different ranges of time, so as to bring the combustion chamber to a desired operating temperature; wherein the fan of primary air, the fan of secondary air and the fan of intermediate air, are adjusted automatically by the controller in accordance to the operating temperature desired in the combustion chamber, corresponding to a given setpoint temperature previously entered by an operator of the evaporator system into the control panel of the controller; wherein the given setpoint temperature is located between about 1200° F. and about 1900° F.; wherein the starting sequence is automatically stopped by the controller of the evaporator system when the operating temperature in the combustion chamber reaches the given setpoint temperature, so as to automatically pass to another operating sequence of the evaporator system; or wherein the starting sequence is manually stopped by an operator of the evaporator system by pressing on the button of the control panel of the controller.
