  2. Loss on ignition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loss_on_ignition

    Temperature controlled furnace. Loss on ignition (LOI) is a test used in inorganic analytical chemistry and soil science, particularly in the analysis of minerals and the chemical makeup of soil. It consists of strongly heating ("igniting") a sample of the material at a specified temperature, allowing volatile substances to escape, until its ...

  3. Muffle furnace - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muffle_furnace

    A muffle furnace or muffle oven (sometimes retort furnace in historical usage) is a furnace in which the subject material is isolated from the fuel and all of the products of combustion, including gases and flying ash. [1] After the development of high-temperature heating elements and widespread electrification in developed countries, new ...

  4. Ignition system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignition_system

    An ignition magneto (also called a high-tension magneto) is an older type of ignition system used in spark-ignition engines (such as petrol engines). It uses a magneto and a transformer to make pulses of high voltage for the spark plugs. The older term "high-tension" means "high-voltage". Used on many cars in the early 20th century, ignition ...

    Heating oil. Heating oil is any petroleum product or other oil used for heating; it is a fuel oil. Most commonly, it refers to low viscosity grades of fuel oil used for furnaces or boilers use for home heating and in other buildings. Home heating oil is often abbreviated as HHO. [1]

  7. Piezo ignition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezo_ignition

    Piezo ignition. Piezo ignition is a type of ignition that is used in portable camping stoves, gas grills and some lighters. [1] Piezo ignition uses the principle of piezoelectricity, which, in short, is the electric charge that accumulates in some materials in response to mechanical deformation. It consists of a small, spring-loaded hammer ...
