If I want to buy charcoal from Amazon, do they sell good quality charcoal that produces a lot of co? Does the brand matter or can I buy from any of them? Amazon has websites in many different countries, do they all sell charcoal? And if I don't buy from Amazon but from a different store, are all stores that sell charcoal reliable for the carbon monoxide method to work? Also I heard that some charcoal are co2 emission free, meaning carbon dioxide, for example in the uk I saw charcoal that's co2 emission free but I don't know about other countries. If coal is co2 emission free does it matter, does it make the method not work? Does coal that's co emission free also exist, meaning carbon monoxide emission free, because if so then they wouldn't work for the co method. How do you check which ones are co emission free and which ones produce a lot of co? Obviously you would need coal that produces a lot of co. Does it say on the package of the coal?

ב''ה, as to carbon *dioxide,* combustion is basically always going to produce some, the marketing claims are a legacy of being able to trade all the carbon offsets, i.e. that charcoal company may claim to plant more forest than they destroy, and maybe that's true or maybe the money all gets burnt in a giant hole as with recycling of just about anything other than scrap metal in USA.

As to maximizing CO, you probably want to read about stoichiometry.

I only asked if Amazon is a good place to buy good quality charcoal from and also all the other questions in the original post, I don't know about stoichiometry, it's probably complicated

Maybe it would help if you indicated which Amazon locale you're looking at.
