Oxy-fuel combustion of pulverized coal: Characterization, fundamentals, stabilization and CFD modeling

TL;DR: Oxy-coal combustion has generated significant interest since it was proposed as a carbon capture technology for newly built and retrofitted coal-fired power plants, and numerical models for sub-processes are also used to examine the differences between combustion in an oxidizing stream diluted by nitrogen and carbon dioxide as mentioned in this paper.

A simplified reaction mechanism for soot formation in nonpremixed flames

TL;DR: In this paper, a reaction mechanism for soot formation in non-premixed flames is proposed and tested for different flame configurations and fuels, and the mechanism is combined with detailed and simplified gas phase chemistry for ethylene and methane flames respectively.

Models of soot formation and oxidation

TL;DR: In this paper, three types of models are divided up into three classes: empirical, semi-empirical and detailed, and the three classes have demonstrated success in predicting soot concentrations.
