oxygen was a requirement for combustion?

Probably a poor choice of words. By cumbustion I meant the charring of
the wood/cloth fibers and releasing of other organic and inorganic compounds
into the gaseous mixture. What becomes of the other compounds that do
not form into the hydrocarbons and are condensed into the 'fuel'? Do they
remain in the gaseous limbo until the reactor is cooled down and they
condense and are disposed of with the potential carbon black and wire
(and other) remnants?
