Mechanisms of soot nucleation in flames—A critical review
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a mechanism for soot formation in a premixed laminar flame, where chemiions are assumed to be the precursor on which the free radicals, polyacetylenes, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons repeatedly add in fast ion-molecule reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of molecular structure on incipient soot formation
H.F. Calcote,D.M. Manos +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a rational threshold soot index (TSI) was defined for evaluating the onset of soot formation in both premixed and diffusion flames, and it was shown that all the data in the literature on either premixed or diffusion flames are consitent with respect to molecular structure for each of the two types of flames.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms for the formation of ions in flames
TL;DR: In this article, the status of the field of ion formation in flames is summarized, including not only a review of the literature but also some new proposals on cumulative and chemi-ionization.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ion production and recombination in flames
TL;DR: In this article, a picture has been formulated of the mechanism of ion formation and removal in flames which is consistent with the known facts, and some details are still fuzzy, and the specific elementary steps to be chosen are still open to question.

Submerged combustion process and apparatus for removing volatile contaminants from groundwater or subsurface soil
H.F. Calcote,Charles H. Berman +1 more
TL;DR: Combustion is used as a source of heat to remove polluting volatiles from contaminated groundwater and subsurface soil as discussed by the authors, where a burner assembly is placed in a well, either in or out of an aquifer, to produce steam and or hot air and/or hot water which drives off the volatile contaminants which are collected through separate wells or vents depending upon the site.
