Countering creosote and fumes in wood stoves

Journal Article · · Chem. Week; (United States)
OSTI ID:5687979
As wood stoves can pollute the air and fires can be caused by creosote buildup, companies are making products which help to solve these problems. These firms include a company which makes a liquid catalyst spray which minimizes the emission of polluting particles while preventing creosote buildup and another whose product aids the combustion of soot and forms a shield on chimney and stove surfaces against corrosive combustion products. Some stove makers have their own method for reducing emissions by incorporating a catalytic combustor.
