Quantitative imaging of KOH vapor in combustion environments using 266 nm laser-induced photofragmentation fluorescence
In biomass thermal conversion processes, the release of potassium in high temperature environments crucially influences the operating efficiency and safety. The dominant potassium species can be potassium hydroxide (KOH) and/or potassium chloride (KCl). We report a species-specified quantitative measurement of potassium hydroxide (KOH) in combustion environments using laser-induced photofragmentat
