- 2 -In terms of the product, a sensor apparatus is thus provided according to the invention for ascertaining a composition of the fuel, wherein the recirculation apparatus is configured so as to be controlled as a function of the composition of the fuel detected by the sensor apparatus.
In terms of the method, it is provided according to the invention that a composition of the fuel is ascertained by a sensor apparatus and the recirculation apparatus is controlled as a function of the composition of the fuel detected by the sensor apparatus.
In this case, the term "controlled" used for the sake of simplicity in the present context encompasses the two terms "control" and "regulate" which are common in control technology.
In other words, the gas-burner device according to the invention or the method according to the invention for operating such a gas-burner device is thus characterized in that the quantity of exhaust gas returned to the burner is determined as a function of the composition of the fuel. As was surprisingly able to be determined, the result of this is that both natural gas and liquid petroleum gas, for example, and even hydrogen can be burned with a single burner and namely without a further change of components or a re-parameterization.
In terms of the product or in terms of the method, the stipulation that "a sensor apparatus is provided for ascertaining a composition of the fuel" or that "a composition of the fuel is ascertained by a sensor apparatus" means quite generally in this case that the sensor apparatus is suitable for drawing conclusions about the composition of the fuel, selectively directly or indirectly. As will be discussed in more detail below, the sensor apparatus can thus be configured, for example, as a Date recue/Date received 2023-02-17

- 3 -gas chromatograph but also as a temperature sensor for detecting the combustion surface temperature. For example, it is also possible to use a sensor apparatus which measures UV light in order to detect the so-called OH bands and/or CH bands which are produced as an intermediate product during the combustion and from which conclusions can be drawn about the composition of the fuel. In short:
the sensor apparatus can be configured very differently;
ultimately the composition of the fuel used is to be ascertained or can be ascertained thereby, in order to determine on this basis the quantity of exhaust gas which is actually to be returned for a clean combustion.
