Flue Gas Silencer

Burgess-Manning Flue Gas Silencers (FGS) are custom-engineered to effectively and reliably reduce exhaust noise from gas turbines (GT) and heat recovery steam generator (HRSG) systems. Our patented designs handle a wide range of flue gas temperatures, varied flow conditions and high exhaust gas velocities without compromising system performance.
 
Whether integrated into silencer ducts at high (up to 730 °C) or low temperatures (behind the HRSG around 150 °C) or operating under extreme flow conditions, our silencers are optimized for the specific output profiles of gas turbines, supporting both simple cycle and bypass/HRSG configurations.
 
With absorptive attenuation targeting medium to high noise frequencies, durable materials selected for demanding design temperatures and panels suitable for rectangular or circular ducts, Burgess-Manning silencers deliver the desired acoustic performance while maintaining the extreme flow conditions of efficient power plant operation. Tailor-made for vertical or horizontal installations, our FGS provides reliable noise reduction while supporting cost-efficient plant solutions.

Relevant Industries

Oil and gas refineries, natural gas processing plants and LNG facilities represent remarkably intensive and acoustically challenging industrial environments, generating intense noise levels from complex processing equipment, high-pressure systems and continuous operations. Hydrocarbon processing facilities require comprehensive noise control solutions to ensure worker safety, regulatory compliance, community relations and operational efficiency.

Power plants generate both energy and significant acoustic energy. Excessive noise can endanger employees, affect equipment longevity and violate local and international regulations. Burgess-Manning custom-engineers silencers for turbines, compressors, blowers, generators and transformers.
