3. Oxidation chemistry of oxygenated organic compounds

The aim of this last paragraph is to describe the main elementary reactions, as well as the kinetic mechanisms that explain the phenomena observed during the oxidation of the main families of hydrocarbons, alkanes, alkenes and aromatic compounds, which are present in fuels derived from petroleum or natural gas. Mechanisms relating to the oxygenated organic compounds that are the major components of biomass fuels are also mentioned. We conclude with a few words on how to write mechanisms for mixtures of several molecules.

The phenomena leading to soot formation and the structure...
