A Waste Gasification Plant In a Truck

Cool thing!

But "carbon monoxide" is used to run generators? I must have missed something along the way. I thought CO was a waste that was not-so-friendly because it poisons people when they breathe it. The loose negative charge bonds to blood oxygen and causes asphyxiation eventually.

How is it used in generators? Or is it furnaces? I didn't think CO was very flammable.

I think it (CO) is used in furnaces to create a reducing atmosphere. I, like you, am not sure of the flammability except I think it was used in the early century for lighting and was called Water Gas. Anyway, I don't know how this would help with Global Warming since it, CO, has a propensity to bond with available O2, as you mentioned by leaching it from any local human or, I assume, the air. What do you have then? CO2 the BIG culprit in "Global Warming".
