I recall seeing on one of the science programs a catalyst product that was supposed to be coming which was supposed to significantly reduce emissions and flue deposits from wood fires (Closed combustion stoves) unfortunately I never saw any more of it. From memory the CSIRO had some hand in it. It was a metal tube containing a heat activated substance which then acted as a catalyst ina chemical reaction that resulted in lower emissions.
I think it my have been on the old ABC show "The New Inventors" though after first hearing about the Biolytix water treatment system on the show and ending up with one after quite a bit of discussion, to replace a completely worn out old septic system, I look back at the program with a less favorable view. The Biolytix turned out to be a dud and the major failures of older units started to show up about a year after ours was installed. The eventual fix for the basic design flaws involves a backhoe.
I will add to my previous posts, we use wood heating but I think in areas with significant population density wood heaters are simply inappropriate.
