Abstract

Four rich premixed C₂H₄/O₂ flames diluted with Ar and CO₂ (total 30% in volume) at low pressure (4.0 kPa), with respective CO₂ proportions of 0%, 10%, 20% and 29%, were studied using synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet photoionization mass spectrometry. A kinetic model with 176 species and 642 reactions was developed. Based on the rate of production analysis and the sensitivity analysis, the reaction CO + OH = CO₂+ H plays a significant role in the reduction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) formation in the flames with CO₂ addition. By increasing CO₂ proportion, the formation of ¹CH₂, ³CH₂, and CH is inhibited and the concentrations of C₂H₂,C₃H₃ and C₄H₄, which are soot precursors, are reduced as well as PAHs.
