  • know about the challenges of combustion with respect to environmental topics,
  • differentiate between types of combustion and describe different types in detail,
  • make up the balance for combustion processes,
  • explain typical examples of applications for various types of combustion,
  • identify potentials for reducing emissions and to evaluate them,
  • be able to discuss the potentials and challenges of sustainable fuels with respect to the environmental impact for different application fields.
