Combustion products
Combustion products
(OP)
Hi,
I usually make some combustion calculations for boilers using different fuels: natural gas, fuel oil, biomass, etc.
In every chamical analysis that i make, anf from what i have learned, combustion products are allways the same: CO2, H20, N2 and O2.
But, i have a question: what about other chemical components that are usually measured in the flue gases like CO, NOx, ashes, and others??? Everytime someone asks me this ("And what about NOx? What about CO?") i don't know what to answer...
Can anyone clear for me this??
Thanks

RE: Combustion products
Now, if you were doing calculations for producing water gas, you would want to include CO in your calculations.
RE: Combustion products
I didn't understand what do you mean with "...producing water gas..". Can you clarify for me this?
Can you give me an example of a combustion chemical equation for that example please?
Thanks
