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

Combustion aerosol technology has distinct advantages for the assembly of chemoresistive
gas sensors compared to their traditional wet chemistry synthesis. These advantages are …

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) …

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 …

Soot from jet fuel combustion in aircraft engines contributes to global warming through the
formation of contrail cirrus clouds that make up to 56% of the total radiative forcing from …

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 …

Combustion and other high-temperature processes can produce solid aerosol nanoparticles
with complex morphologies, including fractal-like aggregates of primary particles …

Nucleation is an important, yet poorly understood step in soot formation. Here, the
importance of reactive PAH dimerization in reducing soot nucleation reversibility is …

The present study focuses on the cogeneration of hydrogen (H 2) and solid carbon from
microwave-driven methane pyrolysis in a fluidized bed of carbon pellets. Numerical …

The structure (size and morphology) of carbon black (CB) largely determines its
performance in tires, inks, batteries etc. Here, the impact of CB process synthesis variables …
