Abstract (en)

[origin: FR2790038A1] The combustion of a fuel and an oxidizing gas is improved by passing the gas through an organic solid before mixing with the fuel. The solid is sublimed and forms 0.5 - 15 ppm of the fuel/gas mixture. An Independent claim is also included for a filter for an oxidizing gas that has a cartridge within a casing having a gas inlet and outlet. The cartridge has perforated tubes containing an organic solid that is sublimed by the gas. The cartridge has an elastic band supporting the tubes. Preferred Features: The solid is a compacted powder.
