Fuels include carbon monoxide and hydrogen methane, and other alkane species up to n-butane, ethylene, propene, acetylene, and oxygenated species such as methanol, acetaldehyde, and ethanol. Formation of some larger intermediate and product species including benzene, butadiene, large olefins, and cyclopentadiene has been treated in a semiempirical manner. The reaction mechanism has been tested for conditions that do not involve transport and diffusional processes, including plug flow and stirred reactors, batch reactors and shock tubes. The present kinetic model and its validation differ from previous comprehensive detailed reaction mechanisms in two important ways. First, in addition to conventional combustion data, experiments more commonly associated with chemical engineering problems such as oxidative coupling, oxidative pyrolysis and steam cracking are used to test the reaction mechanism, making it even more general than previous models. In addition, H-atom abstraction and some other reaction rates, even for the smaller C2, C3, and \C4\ species, are treated using approximations that facilitate future extensions to larger fuels in a convenient manner. The construction of the reaction mechanism and selected comparisons with experimental data are described that illustrate the generality of the model.
