In this article, we present the use of an implicit method for simulating reduced combustion mechanisms of methanol and ethanol. The Rosenbrock method was used to obtain the result with greater stability in the simulation of the ODE system obtained through the reduced mechanisms. In the numerical results, some simulations are presented for the reduced mechanisms of methanol and ethanol. The commercial software Gaseq is used to analyze the results obtained in this work, presenting good agreement and showing that the Rosenbrock method is effective for resolving the extreme rigid EDO system regarding the chemical kinetics of these mechanisms.
