"We're taking carbon dioxide, a waste product of combustion, and we're pushing that combustion reaction backwards with very high selectivity to a useful fuel," Rondinone said.

"We're taking carbon dioxide, a waste product of combustion, and we're pushing that combustion reaction backwards with very high selectivity to a useful fuel," says Dr Adam Rondinone, of ORNL.

Combustion reactions can be described using word and symbol equations. The fuel used in gas barbeques is butane. Butane molecules contain only carbon atoms and hydrogen atoms and it is written as ...

Carbon nanotubes grow in combustion flames Date: April 1, 2014 ... "Our simulations have shown that acetylene oligomerization and cross-linking reactions between hydrocarbon chains occur as major ...

This module connects ideas across topics in a first semester introductory chemistry course to explore the impacts of combustion reactions. By motivating students to understand the relationship between ...

Recycling Combustion: Creating Fuel From Carbon Dioxide. Might we soon be able to buy gasoline made from CO2? ... and then hydrogenating it via various catalytic reactions such as Fischer-Tropsch.

Combustion chemistry and flame dynamics lie at the heart of energy conversion processes, where chemical reactions convert fuel into heat and light. This field examines the intricate balance ...

HRSG stack gas is forwarded to a post-combustion carbon dioxide capture plant (CCP). The proposed system, GTC4, is based on the diversion of a portion of HRSG stack gas from the CCP.
