Thermal Analysis Applications In Fossil Fuel Science. Literature survey

In this study, instances where thermal analysis techniques (differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry, differential thermal analysis, etc.) have been applied for fossil fuel characterisation and kinetics are reviewed. The scientific results presented clearly showed that thermal analysis is a well-established technique used in fossil fuel research area. The literature survey showed that thermal methods were important not only theoretically but also from a practical point of view. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
