Currently, the development of alternative and green energy sources has been being strongly
pushed aiming to recoup the lack of fossil energy, to meet the ever-increasing demand of …

The ultraviolet-induced photochemistry of five-membered heterocyclic rings often involves
ring opening as a prominent excited-state relaxation pathway. The identification of this …

The necessity to reveal the formation mechanism of not only polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) but also oxygenated PAHs (OPAHs) during combustion is increasing …

Current topics in combustion chemistry include aspects of a changing fuel spectrum with a
focus on reducing emissions and increasing efficiency. This article is intended to provide an …

Understanding and predicting the formation of polycyclic aromatic compounds (PACs) and
their role in the formation of high molecular mass compounds is still an unresolved topic in …

Recently, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and oxygenated PAHs (OPAHs) have
been attracting considerable attention owing to their high toxicity. Understanding their …

The methyl-substituted furan derivatives 2-methylfuran (2-MF) and 2, 5-dimethylfuran (2, 5-
DMF) are often discussed as alternative fuels. Despite the large number of mechanistic …

Aromatization of biofuran offers promising approaches for sustainable biochemical
production. However, this process is often hampered by low yields and severe coking on …

In this study, the pyrolysis of furan (F) and its two methyl-substituted derivatives 2-
methylfuran (2-MF) and 2, 5-dimethylfuran (2, 5-DMF) was investigated behind reflected …

Furans are an important class of compounds that can be thermochemical or enzymatically
produced from biomass. Despite of their importance little is known about the thermal …
