The study of soot has long been motivated by its adverse impacts on health and the
environment. However, this combustion knowledge is also relevant to the production of …

Oxygenated fuels have been widely used in combustion engines to tailor fuel properties,
improve combustion performance and reduce harmful emissions such as soot particles …

Ammonia, as an alternative fuel, is attracting unprecedented attention due to the absence of
CO 2 emission during its combustion. Effects of ammonia co-firing on soot formation in …

Mitigation of soot emissions from combustion devices is a global concern. For example,
recent EURO 6 regulations for vehicles have placed stringent limits on soot emissions. In …

A novel model called Surface Shell Formation (SSF) is developed which predicts soot
maturity based on the equilibrium nanostructure of poly aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) …

Pyrolysis of hydrocarbon feeds such as methane (CH 4) and natural gas emerges as a
pivotal carbon dioxide-free large-scale hydrogen (H 2) production process combined with …

A recently developed chemical kinetic scheme for C2 fuel combustion with PAH growth has
been implemented in a parallelized coflow flame solver. The reaction mechanism has been …

Turbulent combustion will remain central to the next generation of combustion devices that
are likely to employ blends of renewable and fossil fuels, transitioning eventually to …

This work aims to develop a reaction mechanism for gasoline surrogate fuels (n-heptane, iso-
octane and toluene) with an emphasis on the formation of large polycyclic aromatic …

A soot model was developed based on the recently proposed PAH growth mechanism for C
1–C 4 gaseous fuels (KAUST PAH Mechanism 2, KM2) that included molecular growth up to …
