This module connects ideas across topics in a first semester introductory chemistry course to explore the impacts of combustion reactions. By motivating students to understand the relationship between ...

Spontaneous combustion is a sometimes mysterious and often misunderstood or misdiagnosed combustion of flammable materials. I am sure that many fires have been blamed on spontaneous combustion that ...

Researchers have theoretically linked ignition and deflagration in a combustion system, unlocking new configurations for stable, efficient combustion engines due to the possible existence of any ...

In this interview, AZoM talks to Dr. Andre Klostermeier, product manager at ELTRA, about the benefits that combustion analysis has over spectrometric methods for C/S and O/N/H measurements. Since its ...

Researchers have discovered a new method by which a catalyst can be used to selectively burn one molecule in a mixture of hydrocarbons -- compounds made of hydrogen and carbon atoms. For the first ...
