Abstract

An apparatus for combustion of synthetic gases comprises a burner (75), a combustion chamber (62) cooperating with the burner (75) and having an outlet (64) destined to eject exhaust gases, a fluid supply circuit (65) configured for supplying a comburent gas to the burner (75), wherein the fluid supply circuit (65) is at least partially outside the combustion chamber (62) and has one or more channels (66) in contact with an outer surface (62a) of the combustion chamber (62) for exchanging heat with the combustion chamber itself. A plant and a process using the above combustion apparatus are also described.
