A staged-air burner for use in furnaces such as in steam cracking. The burner includes a burner tube including (i) a downstream end, (ii) an upstream end for receiving fuel and air, flue gas or mixtures thereof from a primary air chamber, and (iii) a burner tip mounted on the downstream end of said burner tube and directed to the first flame opening in the furnace, so that combustion of the fuel takes place downstream of said burner tip; a secondary air chamber for supplying a second portion of combustion air, said secondary air chamber in fluid communication with at least one air port; and a wall peripherally surrounding said burner tip to provide a barrier between a base of a flame at said burner tip and said at least one air port.

1. A staged-air burner for use in a furnace having a furnace floor, said staged-air burner being located adjacent a first flame opening in the furnace floor, said staged-air burner comprising:(a) a burner tube including (i) a downstream end, (ii) an upstream end for receiving fuel and air, flue gas
1. A staged-air burner for use in a furnace having a furnace floor, said staged-air burner being located adjacent a first flame opening in the furnace floor, said staged-air burner comprising:(a) a burner tube including (i) a downstream end, (ii) an upstream end for receiving fuel and air, flue gas or mixtures thereof from a primary air chamber, and (iii) a bumer tip mounted on the downstream end of said burner tube and directed to the first flame opening in the furnace, so that combustion of the fuel takes place downstream of said burner tip; (b) a secondary air chamber for supplying a second portion of combustion air, said secondary air chamber in fluid communication with at least one air port; and (c) a wall perpendicularly disposed in relation to the furnace floor and extending into the furnace, said wall peripherally surrounding said burner tip to provide a substantial barrier between a base of a flame at said burner tip and said at least one air port. 2. The burner according to claim 1, wherein the burner is a pre-mix burner.3. The burner according to claim 1, wherein the burner is a flat-flame burner.4. The burner according to claim 1, wherein said burner further comprises an external FGR duct.5. The burner according to claim 1, further comprising:(a) at least one passageway having a first end at a second opening in the furnace and a second end opening into said primary air chamber, said primary air chamber being in fluid communication with the upstream end of said burner tube; and (b) means for drawing flue gas from said furnace, through said passageway and said primary air chamber in response to an inspirating effect of uncombusted fuel flowing through said burner tube from its upstream end towards its downstream end; whereby said wall peripherally surrounding said burner tip also provides a substantial barrier between the base of the flame at said burner tip and said second opening in said furnace. 6. The burner according to claim 5, further comprising a fuel orifice located adjacent the upstream end of said burner tube for introducing fuel into said burner tube, said fuel orifice being mounted on a gas riser.7. The burner according to claim 6 wherein said fuel orifice is located within a gas spud.8. The burner according to claim 5, wherein said means for drawing flue gas from said furnace comprises a venturi portion in said burner tube.9. The burner according to claim 8, wherein said wall operates to reduce the amount of oxygen flowing into the base of the flame.10. The burner according to claim 1, wherein said wall operates to reduce the amount of oxygen flowing into the base of the flame.11. The burner according to claim 1, further comprising a first adjustable damper opening between said passageway and a source of air.12. The burner according to claim 11, wherein said first adjustable damper opening is effective to restrict the amount of air entering into said primary air chamber and thereby providing a vacuum to draw flue gas from the furnace.13. The burner according to claim 11, further comprising a second adjustable damper opening into said secondary air chamber to restrict the amount of air entering into said secondary air chamber.14. The burner according to claim 13, wherein said secondary air chamber is in fluid communication with a plurality of said air ports.15. The burner according to claim 1, wherein said secondary air chamber is in fluid communication with a plurality of said air ports.16. The burner according to claim 5, wherein said wall is perforation-free to prevent flow of flue gas and air therethrough.17. The burner according to claim 15, wherein said wall has a plurality of wall openings.18. The burner according to claim 1, wherein said wall has a plurality of wall openings.19. The burner according to claim 17, wherein said wall openings are at the base of said wall.20. The burner according to claim 17, wherein each one of said air ports is positioned between adjacent wall openings to minimize the amount of oxygen flowing from said air ports and through said wall openings to the base of the flame.21. The premix burner according to claim 1, further comprising at least one steam injection tube.22. A method for use in a staged-air burner for the combustion of fuel, the burner being located adjacent a first opening in a furnace, the furnace having a furnace floor, and including a primary air chamber for supplying a first portion of combustion air, a burner tube including a downstream end, an upstream end for receiving fuel and air, flue gas or mixtures thereof, a burner tip mounted on the downstream end of the burner tube adjacent the first opening in the furnace, so that combustion of the fuel takes place at the downstream end of the burner tip and a secondary air chamber for supplying a second portion of combustion air, the secondary air chamber in fluid communication with at least one air port, the method comprising installing a wall perpendicularly disposed in relation to the furnace floor and extending into the furnace, the wall peripherally surrounding the burner tip mounted on the upstream end of the burner tube and substantially blocking the flow of secondary air by providing a substantial barrier between a base of a flame at the burner tip and the at least one air port.23. The method according to claim 22, wherein the burner is a pre-mix burner.24. The method according to claim 22, wherein the burner is a flat-flame burner.25. The method according to claim 22, wherein the burner further comprises an external FGR duct.26. The method according to claim 22, wherein the wall has a plurality of wall openings therearound.27. The method according to claim 22, further comprising injecting steam through at least one steam injection tube.
