It also produces toxic combustion by-products. It is important to learn about the process of burning wood and how to properly utilize your fireplace. Choose seasoned logs or kiln dried logs. Seasoned logs hold less moisture, and are more likely to burn hotter and longer than unseasoned logs. Burning Time Heating wood with wood is a traditional and effective method of heating. However, it can release outdoor and indoor emissions that are hazardous to human health. A well-designed fireplace, when properly used can lessen the negative effects of burning wood. The duration of a woodfire depends on its temperature. The temperature of the fire can affect the amount of smoke released and the amount of carbon monoxide that is released. If the levels of carbon monoxide are high, they can hinder the escape of people from a building that is burning. It is important to keep a low heat level on the fire to avoid this. During the initial phase of a fire, volatile gases like alcohol and methane are released from the wood's cellulose. These gases can be combustible or non-combustible, depending on the moisture content and the pyrolysis temperature of the sample. The temperature of process can rise to 350 degrees Celsius. At this point the cellulose begins to break down and create charcoal and tar. This process is referred to as wood pyrolysis. Burning wood releases other toxic combustion products such as dioxins, polyaromatic hydrocarbons and PAHs. PAHs are known to cause cancer and other ailments in animals and humans. They can also cause contamination of water and soil. To minimize the impact of PAHs, wood must be burned in a well ventilated space. A wood stove that has an extended burn capacity can maintain visible flames while using a minimal amount of fuel. This method involves
