combustion characteristics
1Oxy-fuel combustion process — Oxyfuel CCS power plant operation Oxy fuel combustion is the process of burning a fuel using pure oxygen instead of air as the primary oxidant. Since the nitrogen component of air is not heated, fuel consumption is reduced, and higher flame… …
2Micro combustion — is the sequence of exothermic chemical reaction between a fuel and an oxidant accompanied by the production of heat and conversion of chemical species at micro level. The release of heat can result in the production of light in the form of either …
3Coal combustion products — (CCPs) (also called coal combustion wastes (CCW)) are categorized in four groups, each based on physical and chemical forms derived from coal combustion methods and emission controls: Fly ash is captured after coal combustion by filters (bag… …
4Staged combustion — is a method for reducing Nitrogen oxides (NOX) emissions from combustion. There are two methods: * Air staged supply * Fuel staged supplyAir staged supplyCharacteristics: * NOX reduction rate from 50 75% is possible. * Spatial separation of… …
5petroleum refining — Introduction conversion of crude oil into useful products. History Distillation of kerosene and naphtha The refining of crude petroleum owes its origin to the successful drilling of the first oil well in Titusville, Pa., in 1859. Prior to… …
6oxidation–reduction reaction — ▪ chemical reaction Introduction also called redox reaction any chemical reaction in which the oxidation number of a participating chemical species changes. The term covers a large and diverse body of processes. Many oxidation– reduction… …
7Turbocharger — A turbocharger, or turbo, is an air compressor used for forced induction of an internal combustion engine. Like a supercharger, the purpose of a turbocharger is to increase the mass of air entering the engine to create more power. However, a… …
8Gunpowder — For other meanings, see gunpowder (disambiguation). Black powder for muzzleloading rifles and pistols in FFFG granulation size. Coin (diameter 24 mm) for comparison. Gunpowder, also known since in the late 19th century as black powder, was the… …
9Smoulder — Smouldering (or smoldering in American spelling) is a flameless form of combustion, deriving its heat from oxidations occurring on the surface of a solid fuel. Common examples are the initiation of fires on upholstered furniture by weak heat… …
10Gasoline — This article is about the fuel and industrial solvent. For other uses, see Gasoline (disambiguation). Petrol redirects here. For other uses, see Petrol (disambiguation). For the bird group, see petrel. A jar containing gasoline …
