First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A reducing gas generator, comprising: an oxidant system configured to generate from air an oxidant having a variable oxygen content, and configured to provide an oxygen content of the oxidant at a selected value greater than that of ambient atmospheric air; the oxidant system including a first merging chamber configured to receive an oxygen-rich gas and a nitrogen-rich gas, and a valve controlling an amount of the nitrogen-rich gas received in the first me…
