Abstract: Due to industrial development and population growth, global demand for energy has increased enormously; the increased consumption of primary sources of energy such as coal, oil and natural gas has exerted a strong influence on the atmospheric environment. Among all the alternative fuels, hydrogen offers the greatest potential benefits to energy supply and the environment. However, combustion of pure hydrogen is challenged by the difficulties in production, storage, and end-use. A more reasonable method to enhance combustion is to use hydrogen as an additive to fossil fuels.
