| Abstract: | The use of wood as a primary or secondary source of residential heating has been increasing rapidly in Australia, U.S,A., and elsewhere since the early 1970s. This sharp increase m wood burning is having a detrimental impact on air quality, the effects being quite acute in some areas The emissions normally include particulates, organic compounds, polycyclic organic materials, nitrogen oxides, sulphur oxides, and carbon monoxide. The nature and amounts of compounds emitted into the atmosphere are highly variable and depend on many factors such as fuel type, operating conditions, and combustor designs Concerned by the health implications of wood smoke, a number of environmental agencies and research groups are working towards characterizing and quantifying emissions and to identify the factors affecting emissions. This paper reviews the literature available to date, which is quite extensive, and presents information pertinent to the different pollutional aspects of wood burning. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
