As the main pollutant emitted by automobile engines, soot particles have brought great harm
to the environment and human health. However, the soot formation process in automobile …

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 …

The gas synthesis of nanoparticles has gained major interest by different industries and
research groups for the development of new materials and their subsequent implementation …

The climate models of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change list black carbon
(BC) as an important contributor to global warming based on its radiative forcing (RF) …

The impact of organic carbon (OC) on the light absorption of soot is determined by discrete
element modeling coupled with the discrete dipole approximation for computing the …

Plasmon rulers relate the shift of resonance wavelength, λl, of gold agglomerates to the
average distance, s, between their constituent nanoparticles. These rulers are essential for …

Recent studies have suggested that injection of solid particles such as alumina and calcite
particles for stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) instead of sulfur-based injections could …

Reactive molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are employed to investigate the coalescence
of incipient soot clusters. Initially, one thousand acetylene molecules collide and react with …

Fossil fuel-derived soot poses a persistent problem. A joint reduction is conducted via the
reaction between NO x and soot. The underlying reaction mechanisms of large polycyclic …

Oxy-combustion is an effective carbon capture technology. Many oxy-combustion
technologies utilize recycled flue gas (RFG) for dilution to control temperature and heat flux …
