Marshall B Dunning et al.
Anesthesiology, 106(1), 144-148 (2007-01-02)
Fires, explosions, and extreme heat production may occur when sevoflurane reacts with desiccated barium hydroxide lime. The identity of the flammable gas has not previously been published, although carbon monoxide, methanol, formaldehyde, and methyl formate have been identified in low
P J Baxter et al.
Anesthesiology, 89(4), 929-941 (1998-10-20)
Desflurane, enflurane and isoflurane can be degraded to carbon monoxide (CO) by carbon dioxide absorbents, whereas sevoflurane and halothane form negligible amounts of CO. Carbon monoxide formation is greater with drier absorbent, and with barium hydroxide, than with soda lime.

Der Anaesthesist, 46(12), 1071-1075 (1998-02-06)
The various components of commercial soda lime (sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, barium hydroxide) were studied in terms of their reactivity with sevoflurane at its boiling point (59 degrees C). A simple closed system, a reflux cooler, served as
