In the current energy scenario, the production of heat, power and biofuels from biomass has
become of major interest. Amongst diverse thermochemical routes, gasification has stood …

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 …

Aromatic hydrocarbons are important components of petroleum-based transportation fuels,
biomass, coal, and solid waste, etc. The reaction kinetics of aromatic hydrocarbons largely …

The mechanism of carbon particulate (soot) inception has been a subject of numerous
studies and debates. The article begins with a critical review of prior proposals, proceeds to …

The early stages of soot formation, namely inception and growth, are highly debated and
central to many ongoing studies in combustion research. Here, we provide new insights into …

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

A reaction mechanism having molecular growth up to benzene for hydrocarbon fuels with up
to four carbon-atoms was extended to include the formation and growth of polycyclic …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) formation from the pyrolysis of waste tires is
inevitable because of the complexity of tire formulations and the addition of certain …

Astrochemistry lies at the nexus of astronomy, chemistry, and molecular physics. On the
