Re: Searching for exhaust. - A new method of find ET?

Would it be possible to detect alien 'exhaust'?
Imagine looking for ET by searching for planets with exhaut in the 2% range in the alien atmosphere.
Just as humans breath out CO2, wouldn't Suflur and Silcon based life forms breath out  SiO2 and SO2?
If so couldn't we detect Oxygen in alien atmospheres and see if there is CO2, SiO2, or SO2 in the 2% range of the atmospheres?
