COMBUSTION OF HYDROCARBONSCOMBUSTION OF HYDROCARBONSCOMBUSTION OF HYDROCARBONSCOMBUSTION OF HYDROCARBONS99.99% combustion requires the right mix of air and fuel

CH4 + 2 O2 = heat + CO2 + 2 H2O

99.99% combustion requires the right mix of air and fuel

CH4 + 2 O2 = heat + CO2 + 2 H2OCH4 + 2 O2 heat + CO2 + 2 H2O Methane + Oxygen = heat + Carbon Dioxide + WaterCH4 + 2 O2 heat + CO2 + 2 H2O

Methane + Oxygen = heat + Carbon Dioxide + Water
