van den Berg, Thimo (author)Flameless combustion is a combustion regime which results in drastically lower 𝑁𝑂𝑥 emissions. 𝑁𝑂𝑥 has been found to influence global warming through its interactions with ozone chemistry and, exposure to this gas has been found to have adverse health effects on humans. The jet-in-hot-coflow design...master thesis 2023

De Jager, Martijn (author)The research is conducted with the case of Shell Netherlands Refinery (SNR), which has already implemented certain NOx reduction measures such as steam injection in gas turbines and Low NOx Burners in furnaces. The decisions to implement these technologies were primarily based on the level of NOx emissions and financial considerations. This...master thesis 2023

Wijn, Liesbeth (author)In this work the possibility for use of the satellite remote sensing instrument TROPOMI to detect NOx emissions from en-route aviation is assessed. Analysis of aviation intensity, quality of satellite retrievals, and emissions from non-aviation anthropogenic sources showed that the North Atlantic, including the North Atlantic Flight Corridor,...master thesis 2023

Maruhashi, J. (author), Mertens, Mariano (author), Grewe, V. (author), Dedoussi, I.C. (author)Aviation’s contribution to anthropogenic global warming is estimated to be between 3 – 5% [1]. This assessment comprises two contributions: the well understood atmospheric impact of carbon dioxide (CO2) and the more uncertain non-CO2 effects. The latter pertain to persistent contrails and pollutants like nitrogen oxides (NOx), water vapor (H2O),...abstract 2023

Khan, Abul Amir Khan (author), Garsa, Kalpana (author), Jindal, P. (author), Devara, Panuganti C. S. (author), Tiwari, Shubhansh (author), Sharma, P. B. (author)The impact of air pollution on people and the environment is a severe issue that has recently been the subject of extensive research. This study has looked at the factors that contribute to the seasonal and spatial variability of pollutant concentration over Delhi NCR from 2019 to 2021. Additionally, the causes of changes in air quality during...journal article 2023

Pepijn (author), Levelt, Pieternel Felicitas (author)We analyzed observational and model data to study the sources of formaldehyde over oil and gas production regions and to investigate how these observations may be used to constrain oil and gas volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions. The analysis of aircraft and satellite data consistently found that formaldehyde over oil and gas production...journal article 2023

Goselink, Niek (author)This thesis covers the experimental characterisation of a multi-nozzle research combustor capable of achieving flameless combustion (FC). The combustor is operated with methane as fuel and air as the oxidiser, under an overall lean equivalence ratio ranging from 0.6-0.9. The work focused on designing and applying different experimental...master thesis 2022

Nakate, P.A. (author)Industrial emissions are discussed worldwide for their adverse effects on the global climate change. Nitric oxide (NOx) emissions are harmful among the various flue gases emitted in the atmosphere. There are multiple routes of formation of NOx in industry. The formation of NOx due to local overheating in fuel lean conditions is the most common...doctoral thesis 2022

Lahaye, D.J.P. (author), Nakate, P.A. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Juretic, F. (author), Talice, Marco (author)The operation of large industrial furnaces will continue to rely on hydrocarbon fuels in the near foreseeable future. Mathematical modeling and numerical simulation is expected to deliver key insights to implement measures to further reduce pollutant emissions. These measures include the design optimization of the burners, the dilution of...journal article 2022

Rao, P.V. (author), Yin, F. (author), Grewe, V. (author), Yamashita, Hiroshi (author), Jöckel, Patrick (author), Matthes, Sigrun (author), Mertens, Mariano (author), Frömming, Christine (author)One possibility to reduce the climate impact of aviation is the avoidance of climate-sensitive regions, which is synonymous with climate-optimised flight planning. Those regions can be identified by algorithmic Climate Change Functions (aCCFs) for nitrogen oxides (NOx), water vapour (H2O) as well as contrail cirrus, which provide a measure of...journal article 2022

Boxma, Timo (author)As the shipping industry needs to become greener, it has to move away from fossil fuels. For deep-sea shipping, ammonia is marked as a high potential fuel. The AmmoniaDrive concept feeds the anode-off gas from a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) and additional ammonia into an Internal Combustion Engine (ICE). The exhaust gas coming from the ICE can...master thesis 2021

El Abbassi, M. (author), Lahaye, D.J.P. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author)One of the quickest ways to influence both the wall temperature and thermal NOx emissions in rotary kilns is to change the air–fuel ratio (AFR). The normalized counterpart of the AFR, the equivalence ratio, is usually associated with premixed flames and studies of its influence on diffusion flames are inconsistent, depending on the application....journal article 2021

Lahaye, D.J.P. (author), El Abbassi, M. (author), Vuik, Cornelis (author), Talice, Marco (author), Juretic, F. (author)This work studies how non-premixed turbulent combustion in a rotary kiln depends on the<br/>geometry of the secondary air inlet channel. We target a kiln in which temperatures can reach values above 1800 degrees Kelvin. Monitoring and possible mitigation of the thermal nitric-oxide (NOx) formation is of utmost importance. The performed reactive...journal article 2021
