  1. aCalculated via 100% minus the compositions of other products. The measurements of flow rate and temperature followed JIS Z 8808, and those of the compositions of H2O, O2, CO2, HCl, NOx, SOx, CO, and ash dust followed JIS Z 8808, JIS K 0301, JIS K 0301, JIS K 0107, JIS K 0104, JIS K 0103, JIS K 0098, and JIS Z 8808, respectively53,54,55,56,57,58. The amount of ash dust was less than the detection limit.
