Complete combustion.

CO is produced by incomplete combustion. To eliminate CO you must ensure complete oxidation of carbon to CO2 — provide sufficient oxygen (proper excess air), adequate temperature, good fuel–air mixing and residence time, and/or use post‑combustion oxidation (catalytic converters). Reducing excess air or recycling flue gas does not remove CO (and too little air increases CO).
