Abstract: The emissions of uncombusted (toxic) gas components and of particulate matter of two different firewood-fueled low power high quality fireplaces were investigated. Complementation of the fireplaces with sensors for combustion temperature, residual oxygen concentration and CO/HC concentration and development of a new strategy of firing process control enabled lowering of the CO/HC-emissions by about 20% (tiled stove) and by more than 80% (central heater). The particulate matter emissions could be simultaneously reduced by about 33% and 66%, respectively. These results demonstrate that the quality of the firing process was effectively improved by sensor based control.
