Kinetics of n-butanol oxidation over Pt/ZSM-5 catalyst
TL;DR: In this article, a kinetic study of n-butanol catalytic combustion over the Pt/ZSM-5 was performed in a fixed-bed combustor at ambient pressure and temperature range in 390-470 K.

An Experimental Kinetics Study of Isopropanol Pyrolysis and Oxidation behind Reflected Shock Waves
Sean P. Cooper,Claire Grégoire,Darryl J. Mohr,Olivier Mathieu,Sulaiman A. Alturaifi,Eric L. Petersen +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, experiments were conducted in a heated shock tube with isopropanol for stoichiometric and lean conditions at 10 and 25 atm between 942 and 1428 K and at an average pressure of 1.42 atm.

Prediction of Rate Coefficients for the H2CO + OH → HCO + H2O Reaction at Combustion, Atmospheric and Interstellar Medium Conditions.
TL;DR: The prediction of rate coefficients suggests that unified statistical rate theory best applies to low temperature regime, while canonical variational rate coefficients better fit experimental data at the high temperature regime.

Effects of new Ab initio rate coefficients on predictions of species formed during n-butanol ignition and pyrolysis.
TL;DR: This paper explores the effect of incorporating new ab initio predictions into the Black et al. mechanism on predictions of ignition delay time and species time histories for the experimental conditions studied by Karwat et al., and revised predictions for the intermediate speciesTime histories are in much improved agreement with the measurements, but some discrepancies persist.

Mechanism and modeling of nitrogen chemistry in combustion
James A. Miller,Craig T. Bowman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the mechanisms and rate parameters for the gas-phase reactions of nitrogen compounds that are applicable to combustion-generated air pollution are discussed and illustrated by comparison of results from detailed kinetics calculations with experimental data.

Environmental, economic, and energetic costs and benefits of biodiesel and ethanol biofuels
TL;DR: Transportation biofuels such as synfuel hydrocarbons or cellulosic ethanol, if produced from low-input biomass grown on agriculturally marginal land or from waste biomass, could provide much greater supplies and environmental benefits than food-basedBiofuels.
