I am new to firefox customization. I need help to understand, how firefox picks up CA certificates from the global ca-certificates path in ubuntu and uses them in their own cert9.db

Currently, what I am trying is, If I have a rootCA certificate (which I generated using openssl), I want to keep it in a specific path, such that when firefox launches, it picks up that certificate and uses it. How can i achieve it.

I have tried using the policies.json, which works. But are there any other ways to achieve it?

I also want to delete some default certificates, so that they are not loaded after restart or bootup time. Is there any policy to delete it? or what is the way to delete a certificate from being loaded to firefox ?
