Abstract: MAJOR components in the flue gases of a gas-lired appliance are N-. CO and HjO, which are harmless. Because of its toxicity in low concentrations, CO is an important component which has been monitored for many years even though it is essentially a trace component with a properly adjusted appliance. Other trace components such as NO, NOa, SO, CHi, CMi, and aldehydes are present in such low concentrations that in the past they were considered generally to have little significance and only a few investigators of combustion properties studied these trace gases, Because of increasing concern over air pollution and because some of the trace components are considered air pollutants, the gas industry through its PAR Plan Activity is sponsoring a project at the A.G.A. Laboratories aimed at obtaining representative data for the levels of emission of these pollutants by all types of gas appliances. A second aim will be to determine if there is any correlation between burner and equipment design factors with emission levels so as to recommend optimum design factors to minimize gas appliance contribution to air pollution.
