A binary atomizing nozzle includes a housing having a liquid insert and a gas insert. The liquid insert has an interior chamber and a liquid inlet and a liquid discharge communicate with the chamber. A spin insert is positioned in the chamber so that liquid flowing from the chamber is given a rotational spin and exits the liquid discharge as a hollow cone. The spin insert is threadedly engaged with the wall of the chamber so that the liquid discharge constantly wets the wall portion of the flaring discharge. The liquid insert has an outer portion spaced from the gas insert and provides an axially extending annular chamber having a gas discharge. The liquid discharge is axially spaced a preselected distance from the gas discharge so that gas exiting the gas discharge flows along the outer portion of the liquid insert according to the Coanda effect and thereby atomizes the liquid exiting the liquid discharge.
