Particularly, the main component of coal gas is Carbon monoxide, or CO. CO is quite toxic to human beings. It is toxic because, it combines with hemoglobin in the blood to produce carboxyhemoglobin. This thing cannot carry oxygen, and will not transport an oxygen to the body tissues. And due to the absence of oxygen several problems can occur including vomiting, fatigue, headache, heart problems, and in extreme conditions even death.
