The American Flame Research Committee (AFRC) is composed of representatives of
industrial and research organizations and associated eminent combustion expert members in the
United States, Canada and Mexico.
The AFRC sponsors open forums in North America on applied
combustion technology and research and supports the applied combustion research activities of
the International Flame Research Foundation (IFRF). The IFRF is a worldwide network of
industrial companies and academic institutes working to achieve cleaner and more efficient
industrial combustion. The main task of the Foundation is thus the acquisition and generation of
information with which to design flames for the efficient heating of industrial processes, with
minimal environmental effects, and thereafter the design of combustion equipment to produce such
flames.
The AFRC is a suborganization of the world wide International Flame Research Foundation (IFRF)
