    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_welding_and_cutting

    Tests [citation needed] showed that an oxy-gasoline torch can cut steel plate up to 0.5 in (13 mm) thick at the same rate as oxy-acetylene. In plate thicknesses greater than 0.5 in (13 mm) the cutting rate was better than that of oxy-acetylene; at 4.5 in (110 mm) it was three times faster. [10]

    A set of MAPP and oxygen cylinders is used for oxy-fuel welding and cutting.. MAPP gas was a trademarked name, belonging to The Linde Group, a division of the former global chemical giant Union Carbide, for a fuel gas based on a stabilized mixture of methylacetylene (propyne), propadiene and propane.

    An acetylene gas miner's lamp. A carbide lamp or acetylene gas lamp is a simple lamp that produces and burns acetylene (C 2 H 2), which is created by the reaction of calcium carbide (CaC 2) with water (H 2 O). [1] Acetylene gas lamps were used to illuminate buildings, as lighthouse beacons, and as headlights on motor-cars and bicycles. Portable ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_lance

    One end of the tube is placed in a holder and oxygen is fed through the tube. The far end of the tube is pre-heated and lit by an oxyacetylene torch. An intense stream of burning steel is produced at the working end and can be used to cut rapidly through thick materials, including steel and concrete. [2]

  7. Oxy-fuel combustion process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxy-fuel_combustion_process

    The justification for using oxy-fuel is to produce a CO 2 rich flue gas ready for sequestration. Oxy-fuel combustion has significant advantages over traditional air-fired plants. Among these are: The mass and volume of the flue gas are reduced by approximately 75%. Because the flue gas volume is reduced, less heat is lost in the flue gas.
