The route by which gas-phase molecules in hydrocarbon flames form condensed-phase
carbonaceous nanoparticles (incipient soot) is reviewed. These products of incomplete …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are mostly formed during the incomplete
combustion of organic materials, but their importance and presence in materials science …

Many practical soot-emitting combustion systems such as diesel and jet engines rely on
diffusion flames for efficient and reliable operation. Efforts to mitigate soot emissions from …

The management and disposal of flowback and produced waters (FP water) is one of the
greatest challenges associated with unconventional oil and gas development. The …

Combustion involves chemical reactions that are often highly exothermic. Combustion
systems utilize the energy of chemical compounds released during this reactive process for …

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 …

The effect mechanism of Ca on nitric oxide (NO) heterogeneous reduction by char was
investigated using density functional theory calculations with correction of London …

A newly-developed detailed mechanism of soot oxidation was tested against experimental
observations. The computations were performed at an atomistic level and with a detailed …

This paper presents a theoretical study on the physical interaction between polycyclic
aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their clusters of different sizes in laminar premixed …

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 …
