THIRTY years have elapsed since Profs. W. A. Bone and R. V. Wheeler first studied the combustion of methane and were led to the view that oxidation takes place through successive stages of ...

As SpaceX works toward building a sustainable colony on Mars, methane has emerged as its fuel of choice. This deep dive ...

This novel design allows for the even mixing of oxygen and methane and provides time for the combustion to occur before ...

Methane is a compound close compoundA pure substance made from two or more elements which are chemically bonded in a fixed ratio. containing two elements close elementA pure substance which is ...

Methane is a more powerful greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, but there is far less of it in the atmosphere and it does not stay there as long. Methane is more than 25 times as potent as carbon ...

Wärtsilä has introduced a new methane slip reduction solution for its Wärtsilä 50DF dual-fuel engine. The new technology, which ...

The combustion chamber is first precooled by the methane flowing through it. This causes humidity in the air to condense and ice to form on the combustion chamber. The cooling starts in the nozzle ...

Methane, the primary constituent of natural and shale gas, is often flared for heating. Despite its potential as a carbon source for chemical synthesis, its inherent chemical inertness poses ...

The flames confirm that the bubbles are methane, the main component of natural gas. By counting and measuring them, Walter Anthony is trying to gauge how much methane is rising from Goldstream ...
