ABSTRACT
This study's objective is to analyze hydrogen mixtures as a solution for process decarbonization according to various compositions of mixtures and their effectiveness in reducing carbon emissions in industrial applications. The research focuses on quantitatively and qualitatively analyzing the efficiency of processes for a greener and low-carbon future in general terms. Within the results section, three experiments of specific mixtures where hydrogen is added are compared to analyze the height of the flame and, consequently, determine the relationship with
the percentage and concentration of the lpg and hydrogen mixture. In the first study, improvements were identified in lpg combustion by adding hydrogen to avoid a double flame structure. The second study highlights the addition of hydrogen to increase the fuel jet speed and the stabilization of the flame, so by adding hydrogen, energy savings in ranges over 70% are obtained. The third study shows that as the percentage of hydrogen changes, there are changes in the emission of pollutants and thermal characteristics of the flame. These articles derive potential applications in the emissions reduction in stoves
