Well, my small boilers that burn actual "natural gas" don't require stack tests because they are burning actual "natural gas" that has been tested by the gas company and certified it to be low sulfer natural gas.

The P2O machines gas is not actually "natual gas", didn't IsleChem call it something like "usable off gas much like natural gas"? It's all the gaseous emissions from the P2O process and most likely has some ehtane, propane, and butane in it to....which shouldn't be a problem, but it's the funky isomers you might get in that mix that you have to worry about. Oh, I know, IsleChem said "there's no evidence of air toxins in the emissions"....well what tests did they perform, did they just use a PID, a canary, or did they collect a sample and analyze it with a GC?

You throw these percentages around as if you thought they were constants, but the feedstock is variable, and the output will be variable....and as with any chemical process.....the dirt is in the details.
