For gas appliances, a flame supervision device (FSD) – alternative name: flame failure device (FFD) – is a general term for any device designed to stop flammable gas going to the burner of a gas appliance if the flame is extinguished. This is to prevent a dangerous buildup of gas within the appliance, its chimney or the room. [1]
A gas pipeline compressor station. Gas is vented by design from the seals of some gas compressor equipment. In gas fields, acquiring non-associated petroleum gas (i.e. another form of raw natural gas) is the primary financial objective, and very little is unwanted compared to the gas produced in oil fields or coal mines.

Class A are either an insulated, double wall stainless steel pipe or triple wall, air-insulated pipe often known by its genericized trade name Metalbestos.

“The concentrations we measure from gas and propane stoves lead to dangerous levels within an hour of lighting a stove and stay that way for hours after stoves are off — not just in kitchens ...
Ventilation guidelines are based on the minimum ventilation rate required to maintain acceptable levels of effluents. Carbon dioxide is used as a reference point, as it is the gas of highest emission at a relatively constant value of 0.005 L/s. The mass balance equation is: Q = G/(C i − C a) Q = ventilation rate (L/s) G = CO 2 generation rate
New fronts in the war over stoves are being opened at every level of government. Pro-fossil-fuel politicians are trying to ensure that the market for gas stoves stays alive and well, while liberal ...
The Energy Department put the gas stove debate on the front burner again Wednesday by proposing new efficiency standards for consumer cooking appliances.
