Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Hydrogen

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Combustion, Coal, Analytical chemistry, Mineralogy and Soot. His study in Combustion is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Fly ash, Particulates and Chemical engineering, Particle size. Adel F. Sarofim interconnects Metallurgy and Trace element in the investigation of issues within Coal.

His studies examine the connections between Analytical chemistry and genetics, as well as such issues in Premixed flame, with regards to Diffusion flame. His Mineralogy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Mass spectrum, Gas chromatography, Char and Aerosol. He combines subjects such as Electrical mobility, Atmospheric pressure, Desorption, Specific surface area and Absorption with his study of Soot.

His most cited work include:

  • Combustion aerosols: factors governing their size and composition and implications to human health. (851 citations)
  • Coal devolatilization at high temperatures (441 citations)
  • Experimental formulation and kinetic model for JP-8 surrogate mixtures (363 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Adel F. Sarofim mostly deals with Combustion, Soot, Coal, Analytical chemistry and Waste management. His Combustion research includes themes of Inorganic chemistry and Chemical engineering. His study on Soot also encompasses disciplines like

  • Particle size, which have a strong connection to Aerosol,
  • Particulates together with Diesel fuel.

His Coal research incorporates themes from Fly ash, Pyrolysis, Mineralogy and Metallurgy. The concepts of his Waste management study are interwoven with issues in Combustor and Environmental engineering. Adel F. Sarofim interconnects Fluidized bed combustion and Nitrogen in the investigation of issues within Char.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Combustion (39.56%)
  • Soot (21.50%)
  • Coal (21.18%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2005-2014)?

  • Soot (21.50%)
  • Combustion (39.56%)
  • Waste management (16.51%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His main research concerns Soot, Combustion, Waste management, Chemical engineering and Benzene. His work carried out in the field of Soot brings together such families of science as Analytical chemistry, Diffusion flame, Ethylene and Particle-size distribution, Particle size. While the research belongs to areas of Analytical chemistry, Adel F. Sarofim spends his time largely on the problem of Flame structure, intersecting his research to questions surrounding Liquid fuel.

His Combustion research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Mineralogy, Flue gas and Coal. His Coal study combines topics in areas such as Fly ash, Metallurgy and Emerging technologies. His study in Chemical engineering is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Residual carbon, Carbon and Oxygen.

Between 2005 and 2014, his most popular works were:

  • Combustion behavior of single particles from three different coal ranks and from sugar cane bagasse in O2/N2 and O2/CO2 atmospheres (178 citations)
  • Combustion behavior in air of single particles from three different coal ranks and from sugarcane bagasse (135 citations)
  • Combustion generated fine carbonaceous particles (110 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Organic chemistry
  • Oxygen
  • Hydrogen

Soot, Combustion, Analytical chemistry, Benzene and Coal are his primary areas of study. His Combustion study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Waste management, Incineration, Oxygen, Chemical engineering and Indoor air quality. His research in Analytical chemistry intersects with topics in Combustor, Diffusion flame, Ethylene and Particle-size distribution, Particle size.

His Benzene research includes elements of Inorganic chemistry and Cyclohexane. His Coal research focuses on subjects like Metallurgy, which are linked to Fly ash, Mineralogy and Pulverized coal-fired boiler. As a part of the same scientific study, Adel F. Sarofim usually deals with the Char, concentrating on Bituminous coal and frequently concerns with Pyrolysis.
