LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS OF THE COMPOSITION AND DETERMINATION OF THE COEFFICIENTS OF EMISSION OF THE PRODUCTS OF BURNING OF FOREST MATERIALS
A. A. Dolgov UDC 533.6.011.6+634.0.431 A laboratory setup for physical modeling of forest fires and investigation of the physicochemical characteristics of the process of burning of forest combustible materials (FCMs) has been described. The results of spectrophotometric investigation of the process of generation of pollutants in burning of FCMs have been given. The coefficients of emission of pollutants in burning of cedar fall have been determined.
