The values for biogas/landfill gas - digester gas, although the variations are wide.
On gas firing, the CO content is affected by factors such as the burner type. The following guideline values can be used:
atmospheric burners, CO2 = approx. 25 - 50% lower than the theoretical CO2. Fan gas burner, CO2 = approx. 10 - 20% lower than theoretical CO2.
n~ CO2 theor
When calculating the actual specific flue gas volume, multiply the theoretical specific flue gas volume by the air factor
CO2 actual
The values tabulated above are approximate.
