dc.description.abstractA compressed air was used in the waste fuel burner instead of using the usual pump in burners, as a result  it can be used in many applications in different places such as melting furnaces, water boilers and heating systems. Waste fuel burner has higher and release more energy compared with normal burners. The waste fuel burner made from copper with simple basic design. Copper is a good heat conductor with resistance to corrosion.Although temperature sensors and furnaces were not available, the efficiency of the burner were found in primitive methods by boiling a certain volume of water. The group works on the efficiency to improve it, and arrive to the maximum possible complete combustion by control the air-fuel mixture, also the group works on the safety to avoid any harm could happen to the human using fire detecting sensor and solenoid valve and that rise the cost of the burner. If the resources were available the way it should be the group can develop  this  project in different ways with high potentials and better efficiency . The price and the need for the Waste Fuel Burner in our country make it very attractive to buy in comparison to the other alternatives in the local area.  Burner could be developed by adding double flame head but it could increase efficiency, cost and fuel consumption.  The project can be improved by adding control unit in order to control all processes in the burner such as heating the fuel, self-ignition and improve safety by re-ignite the flame if it extinguished. Using accurate temperature sensor to measure the exact temperature in the burner environment to make sure that it can be used in many applications. In future the burner can be used for melting  Iron if the cast furnaces and tools such as charcoal, Coke and melting-pot are available.   After compression between types of fuel, the industrial fuel was the best type of fuel because of the high efficiency and caloric value.After calculation  friction losses, the head pressure had been found always to be greater than   losses in pipe and fitting, total losses was found as:Total friction losses =   << head pressure = From that we can conclude that the pump is not needed  in the Waste Fuel Burner, and that improve the aim of the project.If the efficiency and cost of the burner was a face of comparison between the traditional  burner and waste fuel burner, then waste fuel burner serve the aim of the project especially it is a local industry with poor resources and possibilities in the country and uses many types of waste fuel.Efficiency of usual burner = 70%-85% , Efficiency of waste fuel burner = 62% - 76.5% The price of medium capacity for usual "diesel" burner about $765 -$1000 and the usual "industrial fuel" burner about $5714, although the waste fuel burner costs about $1134.en
