Soot Formation in Gas Fuels

This lecture covers the formation of soot in gas fuels, focusing on natural gas and other gases like propane and butane. It discusses the composition of gasoline and diesel, their emissions, and the energy density of various battery systems. The lecture also delves into carbon emissions from different sources, including automobile and meat cooking emissions. It explores the major coal deposits worldwide and the emissions of fine particles during wood burning. Additionally, it addresses the emissions of black carbon by region and source, as well as the mechanisms of particle suspension from soil and ocean surfaces.
