Fuels and Combustion
Fuel gases containing hydrocarbons (ie.g. coke oven gas) are not preheated before burning, mainly because

It reduces its flame temperature tremendously
The hydrocarbons crack thereby choking and fouling the heat transfer surface by carbon soot
It reduces its calorific value tremendously
There are chances of explosion during preheating
