The extent to which imposed oscillations were able to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) has been quantified in ducted, bluff-body stabilized flames and in a sector of a gas-turbine combustor.

PBDEs, a class of flame retardants, are widely used in every sector of modern life to prevent fire.
The realization of special formulations of biopolymers characterized by flame retardancy significantly enlarges their potential for utilization in engineering sectors while reducing the environmental impact.
Similarly, China's red-hot wind-turbine sector has lured in new entrants like moths to a flame.
