Speciated Hydrocarbon Emissions from the Combustion of Single Component Fuels. II. Catalyst Effects

Hazardous Air Pollutant Emissions from the External Combustion of Hydrocarbon Gaseous Fuels Can Be Predicted!

Passage of the 1990Amendments to the Clean Air Act made it clear that maximum available control technology (“MACT”) regulations on the emission of hazardous air pollutants (“HAPS”) from process heaters and industrial boilers, used extensively in the petroleum and petrochemical industries, would be promulgated under congressional mandate by the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency in the year 2...

Combustion and Emissions Characteristics of Biodiesel Fuels

Evaporative tra$c hydrocarbon emissions, tra$c CO and speciated HC tra$c emissions from the city of Athens

Quasi-continuous measurements of NO x , CO and C 5 }C 12 hydrocarbons made during the MEDCAPHOT-TRACE experiment in a street canyon with heavy tra$c load were used to estimate the CO/NO x and 36 individual NMHC/NO x tra$c emission ratios in the Athens basin. A tra$c emission inventory has been compiled for Athens and aspects of this inventory were tested against measurements. The results indica...

When Electrochemistry Met Methane: Rapid Catalyst Oxidation Fuels Hydrocarbon Functionalization

Modern energy challenges have motivated the development of electrochemical transformations of abundant feedstocks into valuable fuels and commodity chemicals. Now, reporting in ACS Central Science, Surendranath and co-workers introduce an electrochemical strategy that enables an organic transformation long-considered a grand challenge: selective methane activation. Methane, the primary componen...
