The variability in both inorganic and organic properties of biomass fuels is large. This paper
discusses combustion-driven transformations and deposition of inorganic material found in …

Laser-based techniques for particle-size measurement have become increasingly important
in combustion research and many other disciplines. Instruments are continually being …

Advanced clean coal technologies, eg power generation from integrated gasification
combined cycle (IGCC) and pressurised fluidised bed combustor, have attracted increased …

Airborne particulate matter (PM) now exceeds sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides to become
principal urban pollutant in most major cities of China. This paper gives an overview of …

The emission of ambient particulate matter that is less than 2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter
from commercial coal combustion sources may represent a greater risk of inhalation into …

Individual particles of pulverized coals exhibit strikingly different combustion phenomena
depending on their rank (anthracite, semi-anthracite, bituminous, sub-bituminous and …
