The emission of NO x during coal combustion contributes to the formation of acid rain and
photochemical smog, which would seriously affect the quality of atmospheric environment …

Soot particulates and nitrogen oxides (NOX) from diesel engine exhaust have been causing
serious problems to human health and the global environment. NO contributes not only to …

Ammonia is considered as one of the most promising alternative fuels due to its carbon
neutrality and the existing infrastructure for its mass production and delivery. However …

Co-firing NH 3 with other fuels is receiving growing interest as a feasible solution to improve
its combustion and emission properties. Previous studies mainly focused on NO x emission …

In light of the increasingly stringent pollutant emission regulation and energy crisis,
ammonia (NH 3) has been regarded as a highly competitive alternative fuel. Previous …

Carbon monoxide (CO), as one of the major gaseous product in the oxy-fuel combustion
boiler, is found to exert great influence on nitric oxide (NO)-char reactions. Unfortunately, the …

Soot particles are composed of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which have either
planar or curved structures. The oxidation behaviors of soot particles differ depending on …

The present paper deals with the catalytic oxidation of soot by O 2 on bare manganese
oxides. The catalysts comprised MnO 2, Mn 2 O 3 and Mn 3 O 4 as well as nano-sized Mn 3 …

Abstract Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform
infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy (RS) and High-resolution transmission …

Using pyridine nitrogen as representative of nitrogen-containing char model, detailed
theoretical calculations based on DFT (density functional theory) and conventional TST …
