Major component is sulfur dioxide. Other components may include sulfur trioxide.
Sulfur dioxide (SO2) is a colorless, nonflammable gas with a strong suffocating odor. It dissolves in water to form weak but corrosive sulfurous acid. This mist is odorless, but is very irritating at low concentrations. Because it is intensely irritating, you would not remain voluntarily in dangerous concentrations. Exposure to high levels can damage tissues in the respiratory system. Lung damage resulting from severe exposures could be fatal. E PA 402
Sulfur trioxide is a colorless, fuming liquid that reacts with moisture in the air to form a visible sulfuric acid mist. This mist is odorless, but is very irritating at low
VOC = volatile organic compound. EPA 402 = chemical classified by EPA as one which could produce acute adverse health if accidentally released.

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless gas. The toxic effect of high concentrations is oxygen starvation of the body's cells. CO effects are considered to be reversible as long as brain damage or heart failure has not occurred.
VOC = volatile organic compound. EPA 402 = chemical classified by EPA as one which could produce acute adverse health if accidentally released.
