Catalytic combustion

Catalytic combustion is a chemical process which uses a catalyst to speed desired oxidation reactions of fuel and so reduce the formation of undesired products, especially pollutant nitrogen oxide gases (NO_x) far below what can be achieved without catalysts. The process was discovered in the 1950s by Catalytic Combustion LLC.
