Disclosed herein is a method of controlling the air to fuel ratio in a burner containing a venturi assembly. The venturi includes an air inlet, a primary fuel inlet with a converging section, a throat portion downstream from the converging section, a diverging section downstream from the throat portion, an outlet, and a secondary gas inlet disposed downstream from the converging section and upstream from the outlet. The method comprises introducing fuel into the fuel inlet, receiving air through the air inlet by inspiration, and feeding a gas through the secondary gas inlet, the flow rate and content of the gas fed through the secondary gas inlet being selected to result in a desired air to fuel ratio through the outlet. A method of firing a heater, a burner, a furnace and firing control systems also are disclosed.

1. A method of controlling the air to fuel ratio in a burner comprising a venturi assembly, the method comprising: admixing air and a fuel in a venturi assembly, the venturi assembly having: an outer venture surface; an upstream air inlet,a converging portion with a primary injection fuel inlet,a throat portion downstream from the converging portion,a diverging portion downstream from the throat portion,an outlet, anda secondary gas inlet disposed on the outer venture surface and downstream from the converging portion and upstream from the outlet,the admixing comprising: introducing fuel into the primary injection fuel inlet,receiving air through the air inlet by inspiration, andfeeding a gas through the secondary gas inlet,wherein the flow rate and content of the gas fed through the secondary gas inlet being selected to result in a desired air to fuel ratio through the outlet. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the fuel has a heating value in the range of about 100 BTU/stdcuft to about 1200 BTU/stdcuft. 3. The method of claim 2, wherein the fuel is a conventional fuel or a syntheses gas, and the conventional fuel and synthesis gas can be fed interchangeably. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the gas fed through the secondary gas inlet is fuel. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the gas fed through the secondary gas inlet is an inert gas. 6. The method of claim 1, wherein a mixture of fuel and an inert gas are fed through the secondary gas inlet. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the secondary gas inlet is disposed downstream from the throat portion. 8. The method of claim 1, wherein the venturi assembly includes a tubular portion downstream from the diverging portion, and the secondary gas inlet is formed on the tubular portion. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein further comprising altering at least one of flow direction and flow velocity downstream from the secondary gas inlet. 10. The method of claim 9, wherein altering at least one of flow direction and flow velocity is effected with a flow resistance component. 11. The method of claim 1, wherein the burner is a hearth burner. 12. The method of claim 1, wherein the burner is a wall burner. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein an induced draft fan is included downstream from the outlet. 14. The method of claim 1, wherein a damper is included upstream of the venturi assembly to provide additional control of the flow rate of air through the air inlet. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein fuels having a volumetric heating value in the range of 100 to 1200 Btu/stdcuft can be used interchangeably. 16. A method of firing a heater having at least one burner comprising a venturi assembly, the method comprising admixing air and fuel in a venturi assembly, the venturi assembly having: and outer venture surface; an upstream air inlet,a converging portion with a primary injection fuel inlet,a throat portion downstream from the converging portion,a diverging portion downstream from the throat portion,an outlet, anda secondary gas inlet disposed on the outer venture surface and downstream from the converging portion and upstream from the outlet,the admixing comprising: introducing fuel into the primary injection fuel inlet, the fuel inspirating air into the air inlet, andfeeding a gas through the secondary gas inlet,wherein a mixture of air and fuel in a selected air to fuel ratio exits the venturi assembly through the outlet. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein low heating value fuel and high heating value fuel can be used interchangeably. 18. The method of claim 16, wherein the gas comprises fuel. 19. The method of claim 16, wherein the gas comprises an inert gas. 20. The method of claim 16, wherein the venturi assembly has a resistance component positioned downstream from the secondary gas inlet. 21. The method of claim 16, wherein the heater has a plurality of hearth burners and a plurality of wall burners and the fuel has a low heating value, further comprising feeding at least a portion of said low heating value fuel through at least one additional port positioned in at least one of a first location adjacent to the hearth burners and a second location in the wall of the heater below the wall burners and above the hearth burners.
