Carbon Monoxide
Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas in high concentrations, and its presence in the atmosphere can contribute to local smog and respiratory problems.
Carbon monoxide is produced when there is insufficient oxygen available to completely burn all the carbon in the fuel. The quantities of carbon monoxide produced are usually small, but they can increase significantly if the CHP package is not correctly controlled and maintained. Emissions of carbon monoxide can be limited by proper control and operation of the CHP package.
