Definition
A very slow combustion or oxidation of a substance at low temperature without flame, such as spontaneous oxidation of hay or coal.
Etymology
From Greek 'erema' (gentle, slow) and 'kausis' (burning). The term combines ancient Greek roots to describe a chemical process recognized since the 1800s in chemistry.
Kelly Says
Eremacausis explains why haystack fires and coal mine explosions happen mysteriously—the material burns so slowly no one notices until it's too hot and suddenly ignites catastrophically.
