Abstract

The quality of combustion process has an impact on combustion itself and mainly on emissions. This latter is one of the major concerns in an environmental viewpoint; for instance, the amount of oxygen is an indicator of bad and good combustion. It is also a constraint for regulating pollutant production, in particular dust that is also a vector transporting harmful micropollutants. The paper illustrates combustion quality detection by means of imaging. The work aims at retrieving possible precursors of combustion deterioration, and instability and allowing decision makers to provide accordingly. Images have been taken from an experimental setup.
