Combustion is the study of the chemical reaction that occurs when a fuel is burned in the presence of oxygen, resulting in the release of heat and light. This area of research focuses on understanding the fundamental principles and mechanisms of combustion, as well as developing technologies to optimize the efficiency and environmental performance of combustion processes. Researchers in this field investigate various aspects of combustion, including the chemical kinetics of reactions, the formation of pollutants, and the design of combustion systems for power generation, transportation, and industrial applications. Overall, combustion research plays a critical role in addressing the challenges of energy production, air quality, and climate change.
