Shale gas is revitalizing America’s chemical industry and shifting ethylene production from oil-based naphtha to shale-derived ethane, causing a short supply of propylene. Oxidative dehydrogenation of
Ethane occurs as a trace gas in the Earth's atmosphere, currently having a concentration at sea level of 0.5 ppb, though its preindustrial concentration is likely to have been only around 0.25 part pe
Persistent organic contaminants in the environment pose an environmental risk due to widespread occurrence and toxic properties. Advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) are treatment methods that have bee
Abstract POLYRATE is a computer program for the calculation of chemical reaction rates of polyatomic species (and also atoms and diatoms as special cases). Version 1.1 was submitted to the CPC Program
Abstract The ODEs describing a chemical kinetics system can be very stiff and are the most computationally costly part of most reactive flow simulations. Research areas ranging from combustion to cl
