How PROTOS works:
The plant oil is filled in the tank. The burner is pre-heated with a small amount of alcohol or other available fuel source. Through application of the pump, the tank is pressurized with approximately 2 bars. The oil rises into the vaporizer where the heat of the flame converts the liquid into a gaseous mixture. The gas flux emits from a nozzle into the burning area, where it mixes with surrounding air and burns in a blue flame. The power output can be ad-justed with a valve in the fuel line.
