combustion technology

Combustion technology involves burning fuels like gasoline, natural gas, or coal to release energy, usually in the form of heat or motion. It relies on a controlled chemical reaction between the fuel and oxygen, producing heat, gases, and sometimes light. This process is fundamental in engines, power plants, and heating systems, converting chemical energy into useful energy. Advances in combustion technology focus on increasing efficiency, reducing pollutants, and optimizing performance by controlling flames, air-fuel ratios, and combustion conditions for cleaner and more effective energy use.
