    Burning is a chemical process by which a fuel is oxidised.

    Take for example the burning of methane (CH4):

    CH4 + 2O2 - - > CO2 + 2H2O

    As you can see the methane reacts with the oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water, releasing heat in the process. The technical name is combustion.
