Ice nucleation on soot particles

Journal of Aerosol Science, 1998
Abstract The ice-forming activity of soot particles of various sizes has been studied in a cloud chamber under temperatures ranging from −5 to −20°C. It was found that the fraction of aerosol particles forming ice crystals was influenced by the temperature, the mean radius of aerosol particles and the degree of oxidising of the soot particle surface.

Effect of Oxidation Catalysts on Diesel Soot Particles

Environmental Science & Technology, 2006
The effect of a conventional oxidation catalyst and a novel particle oxidation catalyst (POC) on diesel particles is studied using identical methodology. Regulated particulate matter emission measurement is followed by analyzing soluble organic fraction.

On the mechanism of soot particle formation

Kinetics and Catalysis, 2000
The results of experiments on the isothermic pyrolysis of acetylene, benzene, and diacetylene in a flow reactor near a low-temperature threshold of soot formation are presented. Diacetylene showed a much higher ability to form soot, coke, and tar than the other hydrocarbons. The threshold temperature of soot formation from diacetylene (800 K) was found

Burnout of Soot Particles

1983
Soot in flames is often a necessary component as it makes possible an efficient heat transfer by radiation. Naturally, it must be subsequently destroyed to avoid pollution. The present paper is focussed on soot oxidation by gaseous reagents.

Formation of soot particles

Faraday Symposia of the Chemical Society, 1973
Probable mechanisms are discussed of the formation processes of pyrolytic carbon films and soot particles, based on experimental investigations of their formation rates. Both are two-stage processes including nucleation and growth of nuclei. The formation of pyrolytic carbon from methane at temperatures below 1300 K is a molecular process.

A picture of soot particle inception

Symposium (International) on Combustion, 1989
We have shown in earlier work that the ultimate soot loading in a sooting premixed flame is determined largely by processes that occur before the growth region, even though 90% of the soot mass is contributed by C2H2 surface growth. In this work we make the first measurements of how early soot formation kinetics vary with equivalence ratio.

Laser microprobe analysis of soot precursor particles and carbonaceous soot

Combustion and Flame, 1995
Samples of soot precursor particles and carbonaceous soot from a nonsmoking ethene diffusion flame have been analyzed by means of laser microprobe mass spectrometry (LMMS). The mass spectra of soot precursor particles from the lower flame display many peaks in the 200–300-amu range that are characteristic of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The

Soot Precursor Particles in Flames

1994
Thermophoretic sampling was conducted in buoyancy dominated diffusion flames fueled by ethene, methane and acetylene and in the laminar ethene flame. Small polydisperse singlet particles which are more transparent to the electron beam are found at intermediate temperatures on the fuel side of the flame front in these flames.

Soot particle size and soot yield in shock tube studies

Combustion and Flame, 1983
Abstract The size of soot particles formed during the shock tube pyrolysis of toluene was measured by laser Doppler velocimetry. The particle size appeared to be of the order of a micron, i.e. about an order of magnitude higher than previously reported in the literature.

Measurement of Naphthalene Uptake by Combustion Soot Particles

Environmental Science & Technology, 2013
In this study, we designed and constructed an experimental laboratory apparatus to measure the uptake of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by soot particles. Results for the uptake of naphthalene (C10H8) by soot particles typical of those found in the exhaust of an aircraft engine are reported in this paper.
