Abstract
Fire effluent toxicity and toxic hazard in fires are highly dependent on the fire conditions. This chapter describes the stages of fire growth, the different types of fires in terms of fire scenario, combustion conditions, and the typical toxic products from each stage. The main fire types described are non-flaming, smouldering, well-ventilated flaming, under-ventilated pre-flashover and post-flashover fires. Under ventilated fires produce the high yields of toxic products that are considered responsible for most fire injuries and deaths.
