    The autoignition temperature or self-ignition temperature, often called spontaneous ignition temperature or minimum ignition temperature (or shortly ignition temperature) and formerly also known as kindling point, of a substance is the lowest temperature at which it spontaneously ignites in a normal atmosphere without an external source of ignition, such as a flame or spark.

    A large compost pile can spontaneously combust if improperly managed. Spontaneous combustion or spontaneous ignition is a type of combustion which occurs by self-heating (increase in temperature due to exothermic internal reactions), followed by thermal runaway (self heating which rapidly accelerates to high temperatures) and finally, autoignition.

    Auto-ignition means that the material will spontaneously combust (or burn) without an external source of ignition such as a spark or flame. If you heat the paper to 450°F and it does not ignite, then 450°F is not the auto-ignition temperature.

  5. Pyrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pyrolysis

    Because pyrolysis takes place at high temperatures which exceed the autoignition temperature of the produced gases, an explosion risk exists if oxygen is present. To control the temperature of pyrolysis systems careful temperature control is needed and can be accomplished with an open source pyrolysis controller. [18]
