Identification of Substances Emitted During Combustion and Thermal Decomposition of Wood-based Materials

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: In this study, the thermal decomposition and combustion products of wood-based board and pellets were studied. Flammability parameters were determined using a cone calorimeter, and substances formed during the thermal decomposition and combustion of the materials studied were identified using a tube furnace (Purser furnace) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS). It was observed that under well-ventilated conditions, complete combustion occurs without the release of hazardous substances. However, during flameless combustion, the resulting smoke contains a variety of substances that pose a threat to human health and life.
