Various types of oil are cracked and quenched with water. This soot created is Carbon Black. A large quantity of Tail gas is produced as a by product of the cracking process. Tail Gas, a very dirty and wet product, is used as fuel to fire Dutch Ovens that dry Carbon Balck Beads.  Pressure must be maintained slightly negative inside the Carbon Black Furnance relative to atmospheric pressure to insure the Carbon Black dust stays within the furnance. The Tail gas (fuel) and air flow into the Dutch Oven must be measured and controlled to maintain the proper fuel/air ratio to maximize combustion efficeincy.
