The method of combusting lean fuel-air mixtures comprising the steps of: a. obtaining an admixture of fuel and air, said admixture having an adiabatic flame above about 900 DEG Kelvin; b. passing least a portion of said admixture into contact with one or more mesolith combustion catalysts operating at a temperature below the adiabatic flame temperature of said admixture thereby producing reaction products of incomplete combustion; and c. passing said reaction products to a thermal reaction chamber; thereby igniting and stabilizing combustion in said thermal reaction chamber.
