Provided is a carbonization furnace in which disordering of fiber bundles does not occur and there is no lack of uniformity throughout the entire furnace interior, even in the supply of heated inert gas. The apparatus comprises an elongate member with a middle portion, a first fixation element and a second fixation element. Personalization information for the first UI element is received from the repository, and used to display the first UI element in an application user interface. The base of the first groove is spaced a greater distance from the peripheral surface than the base of the second groove. More particularly, the present invention relates to coatings that are effective against toxins, precursors to these coatings and methods of forming the coatings. The high, energy absorbing capability of the water molecule reduces the peak combustion temperature, thereby reducing NOx production in the combustion reaction.
