Incomplete combustion is most commonly caused by lack of oxygen. Partial oxidation can lead to many contaminants being released into the environment.
A regular supply of oxygen or air can avoid the incomplete combustion.
Incomplete combustion of Methane is....2CH4 + 2O2 --> CO + C + 4H2O
More oxygen is used in a complete combustion.
CO
CO
Incomplete combustion in an engine indicates that all of the fuel has not been burnt. Incomplete combustion can cause clogging and damage to the valves in the engine of a car.
The Main danger of incomplete combustion is the production of carbon monoxide.
For example the preparation of caramel can be considered an incomplete combustion.
incomplete combustion of fuel
incomplete combustion
the poisoness gas produced by incomplete combustion is carbon monoxide:)
A regular supply of oxygen or air can avoid the incomplete combustion.
A complete combustion reaction will produce CO2 and H2O, while an incomplete combustion reaction produces CO and H2O.
Incomplete combustion of Methane is....2CH4 + 2O2 --> CO + C + 4H2O
Incomplete combustion of decane is ...2 C10H22 + 21 O2 ==> 20CO + 22H2O
Yes, incomplete combustion of natural gas can produce aldehyde. It is also stated that incomplete combustion of natural gas also produces carbon monoxide.
Depending on the situation I would say the most likely cause is oversaturation of the fuel or insufficient oxygen.
