Abstract: A method of making a self-steaming composition is provided, said method comprising mixing a fuel component, a water manager component, and water, wherein the fuel component comprises carbon and wherein the method comprises prewetting the carbon prior to mixing the carbon with the water manager component.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are compositions which are exothermic upon contact with oxygen and are self-steaming. The various described embodiments include compositions comprising: (a) a fuel component; (b) a water manager component; and (c) water. In one embodiment, the water manager component, has a mean particle size distribution of greater than about 250 microns. Alternatively or additionally, the ratio of the water manager component to the water is from about 0.001:1 to about 0.2:1, by weight. Alternatively or additionally, the fuel component comprises sponge iron. Alternatively or additionally, the composition comprises a volatile component. In yet another embodiment, articles comprising the compositions are described. Further, methods of making the compositions are described.
