Abstract Background and aims Mandated reduction of the nicotine content of cigarettes to reduce addictiveness to minimal levels has the potential to substantially reduce combusted cigarette use and promote public health. This paper examined the hypothesis that when people who smoke cigarettes are switched to very low nicotine content (VLNC) cigarettes ...

Energy‐Efficient Combustion Technologies and Burner Designs for Glass Melting Furnaces
ABSTRACT Glass production is one of the most energy‑intensive manufacturing processes, requiring furnace temperatures above 1600°C. These temperatures depend on burners that must balance thermal efficiency with emission reductions. This article reviews the development of combustion systems in glass furnaces, focusing on their impact on energy ...

Flow and combustion in disc and pent-roof SI engines [PDF]
Reported in this thesis is a study of combustion in a disc-shaped combustion chamber spark ignition engine, and in-cylinder flow and combustion in an idealised pent-roof spark ignition engine. Both engines were skip fired, to remove residuals and ensure

The Importance of Tire Wear Particles for Atmospheric Ice Nucleation
Abstract Tire wear particles (TWPs) are prevalent microplastic particles in the atmosphere and pose significant environmental and health risks to humans. Here, we investigated the ice nucleation activity (INA) of TWPs under mixed‐phase cloud conditions (∼−20.0°C < T < −5.0°C) and its changes caused by different environmental exposures, including UV and

Handbook of Establishing and Maintaining Oxygen‐Free Atmospheres
This study presents a practical framework for creating oxygen‐free atmospheres at ambient pressure using silane‐doped inert gases. The results show that ultra‐low oxygen levels and strongly reduced water content can be achieved through controlled silane dosing, drying systems, and sensor monitoring.
