That is, unless what's in that space is burning magnesium. Magnesium is "reactive," which is a polite way of saying that a chemical will do whatever it takes to make a reaction happen. Although nothing can burn without oxygen, carbon dioxide itself contains oxygen.

The term you are looking for is probably pyrolysis. Pyrolysis is a chemical decomposition reaction involving little to no oxygen, or at least not enough oxygen for combustion.

I use two types of elemental analysis instrements in my lab that burn samples. One uses combustion to quantitatively generate CO2 and H2O from organic compound samples in the presence of an abundance of oxygen gas. The other instrement works purely by pyrolysis instead of combustion and produces quantitative H2 and CO gasses from the same organic sample compounds in purely reducing conditions.
