Gaseous fuels require less excess air (10-30%) for complete combustion than solid fuels (100-150%).{combustion efficiency} Solid fuels, however, cost less per energy unit than gaseous fuels. {from less than zero for waste to energy plants, to about 1/2 the cost of natural gas for coal.}
What else can I help you with?
What modes of combustion requires liquid or solid fuels to be converted to the gas phase or vaporized?
Modes of combustion that require liquid or solid fuels to be converted to the gas phase or vaporized include gasification and pyrolysis. In gasification, solid fuels are converted into a synthetic gas mixture consisting of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, which can then be burned. In pyrolysis, solid or liquid fuels are heated in the absence of oxygen to break them down into gas, liquid, and solid products.
Where do flames come out of gas liquid and solid?
Not quite sure what you are asking but there are flames with both solid and liquid fuels
What kind of fuels are oil and natural gas called?
Fossil fuels - because they were formed from remains of vegetation or algae over millions of years.
What are the main characteristics of solid fuels liquid fuels gaseous fuels?
It is shown that the usage of the boilers with a furnace is one of the most perspective ways of improving efficiency and "ecological safety" for low-grade fuels combustion on power plants.was chosen for detailed analysis of the technological parameters, the wing strengths of the vortex furnaces were confirmed by the researches: efficiency of combustion and low level of nitrogen oxides emissions for various fuels, compact configuration, improved aerodynamic characteristics of the flow in the furnace and maneuverability of it.
Is a feather a liquid or solid or gas?
a feather is a solid
Are all fuels solid?
No, not all fuels are solid. Fuels can exist in different states - solid, liquid, or gas. Examples of liquid fuels include gasoline and diesel, while examples of gaseous fuels include natural gas and hydrogen.

How are fossil fuels an example of three states of matter?
Fossil fuels can be considered as an example of the three states of matter because they exist in solid (coal), liquid (crude oil), and gaseous (natural gas) forms. These different states of fossil fuels are the result of varying levels of pressure and temperature during their formation over millions of years.
What are the advantahes of fossil fuels?
Some of the advantages of fossil fuels are that they are highly combustible and easy to transport. Oil and gas can be transported over long distances through pipeline or oil tankers.
How are fossil fuels an example of three state of matter?
Fossil fuels an example of three states of matter because they come in different forms: solid, liquid, and gas Coal is a solid. Petroleum is a liquid. Natural gas is a gas.
What is fuel that is not a liquid or a solid?
Fuel that is not a liquid or solid can be a gas. Many road vehicles use natural gas or propane but I have not heard of an aircraft that does.Fuel that is not a liquid nor a solid is probably gaseous - like the natural gas we use for our cars.
What are the advantages and disadvanteges of fossil fuels?
it is a green house gas so that is a disadvantage .
What is a name for a solid liquad and gas?
Solid - A rock, icecube, clay, or wood Liquid - Water Gas - Fossil Fuels, Gasoline
What three fossil fuels do Americans burn?
coal (solid)petroleum (liquid)natural gas (gas)
What are the three types of fossil fuels what are their state of matter?
The three types of fossil fuels are coal, oil, and natural gas. Coal is typically solid at room temperature, oil is liquid, and natural gas is a gaseous state.
Where do flames come out of gas liquid and solid?
Not quite sure what you are asking but there are flames with both solid and liquid fuels
Is fossil fuel liquid?
Some fossil fuels are liquid (oil) some are solid (coal) and some are gas (natural gas)
