Research interests
My main research is focused on combustion of natural gas, in particular the formation of pollutant species such as NOx, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and carbonaceous particles (soot) in laminar flames. Particular attention is being given to study the main chemical and physical pathways of pollutant species from the combustion of natural gas, in order to be used for improving the design of equipment for combustion of natural gas, characterized by low emissions of pollutants.
