  2. Unburned hydrocarbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unburned_hydrocarbon

    Further, some regions of the combustion chamber may have a very weak flame, that is, they have either very fuel-lean or very fuel-rich conditions and consequently they have a low combustion temperature. These regions will cause intermediate species such as formaldehyde and alkenes to be emitted. Sometimes the term "products of incomplete ...

  3. Decane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decane

    Decane is an alkane hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C 10 H 22. Although 75 structural isomers are possible for decane, the term usually refers to the normal-decane ("n-decane"), with the formula CH 3 (CH 2) 8 CH 3. All isomers, however, exhibit similar properties and little attention is paid to the composition. [5] These isomers are ...

    The flames caused as a result of a fuel undergoing combustion (burning) Air pollution abatement equipment provides combustion control for industrial processes.. Combustion, or burning, [1] is a high-temperature exothermic redox chemical reaction between a fuel (the reductant) and an oxidant, usually atmospheric oxygen, that produces oxidized, often gaseous products, in a mixture termed as smoke.

  5. Butane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butane

    Butane (/ ˈ b juː t eɪ n /) is an alkane with the formula C 4 H 10. Butane exists as two isomers, n -butane with connectivity CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3 and iso-butane with the formula (CH 3 ) 3 CH . Both isomers are highly flammable, colorless, easily liquefied gases that quickly vaporize at room temperature and pressure.

    Combustion of hydrocarbons is the main source of the world's energy. Petroleum is the dominant raw-material source for organic commodity chemicals such as solvents and polymers. Most anthropogenic (human-generated) emissions of greenhouse gases are either carbon dioxide released by the burning of fossil fuels , or methane released from the ...

    Chemical structure of methane, the simplest alkane. In organic chemistry, an alkane, or paraffin (a historical trivial name that also has other meanings), is an acyclic saturated hydrocarbon. In other words, an alkane consists of hydrogen and carbon atoms arranged in a tree structure in which all the carbon–carbon bonds are single. [1]
