A candle that doesn't produce carbon monoxide. What would be the fuel?
Carbon dioxide, CO2, you mean? Otherwise it's more of an engineering problem to re-feed the flame and get all the CO broken up.
I think there are candles with S instead of C, giving Sulfur dioxide SO2.
I mean the monoxide as in the original post. There is not enough oxygen to burn in common candles.
What kinda wax would the candle be made out of?
What kind of material for the thread's capillary action?

If I oxydize silicium and drop water in the process am I burning sand?

redesign the candle to be a parafin furnace that burns hot and oxygen rich with an afterburner to get the CO.

Oxigenated Spermaceti for the wax
The thread could only be some extremely scientific weaving of magnesium, zinc oxide, carbon and poo
iv herd that thc can cure cancer so what if we made it out of weed wax would it save the world

Some fireplaces can keep the flames down by closing the draft (reusing O2? producing mostly solid ashes rather than byproduct floating into the atmosphere as toxins?).
Candles are of an inefficient design and always will be.

rich flames burn at a lower temperature, so you waste fuel without getting as much heat out of it.

Aluminium.
