TLDR
In this paper, a systematic procedure was developed for listing all possible reactions which could occur between pairs of reagents included within a specified list of molecules and molecular fragments, and a set of criteria was formulated for eliminating from this very large set of possible reactions all those which were significantly less important than the dominant steps retained in the final mechanism.About:

Kinetics of pollutant formation and destruction in combustion
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed recent investigations of the kinetics of formation and destruction of nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, and organic pollutants and discussed the coupling between the pollutant chemistry and the combustion process.

Study of the sensitivity of coupled reaction systems to uncertainties in rate coefficients. III. Analysis of the approximations
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a new method of sensitivity analysis for large sets of coupled nonlinear equations with many parameters and developed rigorous error bounds for these approximations, where applicable, they showed that the techniques developed in this series of papers provide a useful and efficient method for sensitivity analysis of large systems with multiple parameters.
