Prof. Katharina Kohse-Höinghaus (Department of Chemistry, Bielefeld University)10/01/2019, 13:25Combustion chemistry plays an increasing role in several respects. New combustion regimes are associated with previously unrecognized chemistry, and alternative fuels may have different fuel-dependent reaction pathways. In both contexts, photon tools are of significant importance. They offer the means to probe the reactants directly. This widely accepted statement might be regarded with a...Go to contribution page

PEPICO spectroscopy was used in flame sampling experiments performed with VUV-photoionization at the Swiss Light Source to identify the fuel radicals and key intermediates in fuel decomposition and in soot formation processes in flames of hydrocarbon fuels.

A key reaction of the fuel decomposition process in pyrolysis as well as in combustion of hydrocarbons is the abstraction of H atoms by... -

Combustion experiments using the i2PEPICO technique have been proven a valuable addition to the existing established synchrotron based methods. High sensitivity towards radicals, especially hard to measure fuel radicals, and a superior identification of isomeric species allow for a more complete experimental investigation of chemical reaction networks. A detailed knowledge of the most...
