Abstract
A boiler suitable for catalytic combustion of fuel comprises a pilot burner and at least two sections comprising a fuel injector, a catalytic combustor and a heat exchanger. The catalytic combustor may comprise a monolith support for the catalyst. Combustion of the fuel takes place in stages with intermediate abstraction of heat, combustion being completed in the final catalytic combustor in which the oxygen content preferably is reduced substantially to zero.
