Heitõhuga

Heitõhuga refers to exhaust gas or flue gas, commonly associated with combustion processes. It is the gaseous product expelled from engines, furnaces, and other combustion chambers after fuel has been burned. The composition of heitõhuga varies significantly depending on the type of fuel used and the efficiency of the combustion process.

Typically, heitõhuga contains a mixture of gases including nitrogen, carbon dioxide, water vapor, and varying amounts of pollutants. Common pollutants found in heitõhuga include carbon monoxide, unburned hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulfur dioxide (SO2), and particulate matter. The presence and concentration of these pollutants are of significant concern due to their impact on air quality and human health.

Regulations and technologies are in place to control and reduce the emission of harmful components in heitõhuga. For instance, catalytic converters in vehicles are designed to transform harmful gases into less toxic substances. Industrial facilities often employ scrubbers and filters to remove pollutants before releasing heitõhuga into the atmosphere. Understanding and managing heitõhuga is crucial for environmental protection and public health initiatives.
