The oxidation of methane doped with ammonia was experimentally and theoretically studied in order to better
understand the interactions between these two molecules in combustion processes fed with biogas. Experiments were
carried out in a jet-stirred reactor. Several diagnostics were used to quantify reaction products: gas chromatograph for
carbon containing species, a NOx analyzer for NO and NO2, and continuous-wave cavity ring-down spectroscopy for
ammonia. Experimental data were satisfactorily compared with data computed using a model developed by
Politecnico di Milano
