  3. Oxy-fuel welding and cutting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

    Oxy-propane torches are usually used for cutting up scrap to save money, as LPG is far cheaper joule for joule than acetylene, although propane does not produce acetylene's very neat cut profile. Propane also finds a place in production, for cutting very large sections. Oxy-acetylene can cut only low- to medium-carbon steels and wrought iron ...

    The justification for using oxy-fuel is to produce a CO 2 rich flue gas ready for sequestration. Oxy-fuel combustion has significant advantages over traditional air-fired plants. Among these are: The mass and volume of the flue gas are reduced by approximately 75%. Because the flue gas volume is reduced, less heat is lost in the flue gas.

  6. Piping and plumbing fitting - Wikipedia
