itanium burns in nitrogen as well as oxygen. You might get some argument that combustion mean "in oxygen" but I think it is fair to say that lots of things "burn" in something other than oxygen. They undergo chemical reactions while giving off light and heat.
Combustion is a process in which some is oxidized in an exothermic reaction. Things can be oxidized by other chemicals than oxygen, such as Cl2 or F2, and that would be considered combustion.
Pyrolysis is a thermochemical reaction in which organic matter undergoes decompostion(or combustion in another sense) in the absense of oxygen.
