Carbonaceous cenosphere particles from an oil furnace are characterized by scanning electron microscopy, mercury intrusion and nitrogen adsorption porosimetry. The porosimetry data are used to construct a random pore model describing the evolution of surface area and pore volume distribution. The pore model is combined with gas phase transport to formulate the equations for transient particle combustion and some numerical solutions are presented.
