Abstract:
A catalytic heating system for heating a container, comprising: a catalytic combustion chamber; a catalytic reaction media having a toroidal shape, with the catalytic reaction media disposed within the combustion chamber, and with the catalytic reaction media in contact with a bottom plate of the container; a fuel and air mixing injector for injecting an entrained air and fuel gas mixture into the combustion chamber; and a fuel canister for supplying fuel gas to the fuel and air mixing injector. The catalytic heating system also includes a system for heating a heating plate comprising: a catalytic combustion chamber; a catalytic reaction media having a toroidal shape, with the catalytic reaction media disposed within the combustion chamber, and with the catalytic reaction media in contact with the heating plate; a fuel and air mixing injector for injecting an entrained air and fuel gas mixture into the combustion chamber; and a fuel canister for supplying fuel gas to the fuel and air mixing injector.

Claim (Index 15):
A method of providing a catalytic combustion process to heat a heating plate, comprising:\n providing a flow of a fuel gas; increasing the velocity of the flow of the fuel gas; entraining the flow of the fuel gas with air, thereby providing a flow of fuel gas and entrained air mixture; injecting the flow of fuel gas and entrained air mixture through a fuel gas inlet in flow-through connection with a combustion chamber; dispersing the fuel gas and entrained air mixture within the combustion chamber so as to form a radial flow pattern emanating from the fuel gas inlet; contacting the flow of fuel gas and entrained air mixture having radial flow pattern with a toroidally shaped catalytic reaction media; passing the flow of fuel gas and entrained air mixture having a radial flow pattern through a toroidally shaped catalytic reaction media, with the catalytic reaction media contacting the heating plate; and igniting the flow of fuel gas and entrained air mixture, thereby generating the catalytic combustion process that heats the heating plate.
