This blog may be over the heads of some of my readers, but here goes.
Years ago there used to be a lot of situations where domestic refrigerators were run by natural gas or propane rater than electricity. Many isolated hunting cabins still use refrigerators that run on some kind of gas. These units were not a problem in the past because most structures were not very air tight. Due the combustion of gas, they produced some Carbon Monoxide that could be fatal in some situations. Even today there are some RV's and travel trailers that still have gas fired refrigerators. Most are now well vented. This is just some back ground.
My point is that when a system generates some Carbon Monoxide, why don't we have systems to
kill" or eliminate it? I am thinking about Ozone. Ozone is unstable and releases its third atom of Oxygen soon after it is formed. That is why Ozone is used to sterilize water ans swimming pools. Hunters use Ozone generators to kill their smell. I have proposed in a prior blog that Ozone could be used to kill the virus of Covi19.
I guess that my question is why doesn't anyone advocate the use of Ozone as a way to get rid of Carbon Monoxide? It would seem to me that a simple systems could easily be developed with some kind of feed back that could regulate the amount of Ozone generated to convert Carbon Monoxide to Carbon Dioxide. We don't need anymore Carbon Dioxide, but at least it is not toxic and trees and plants need it to live.
I would be interested to know if anyone is working on such a system. What do you think of the idea and have you ever heard of the idea before?
