biochar
Dear Gajin and all,
When you make much large volumes of biochar, the amount of heat will
generally be far excessive for any cookstove application.
Therefore, either waste the heat or find some other application. And
often the large applications (even water heating or drying) are more
expensive to build than the biochar maker. Tough choices.
Are your associates willing to waste the heat? and what is the supply
of dry biomass?
I agree with the comment by the NGO Miombo, 200 liter barrels are
currently about as large as is convenient unless money and
experimentation are available.
I hope more people make comments. Be sure to check the biochar
websites for ideas that are not closely linked to stoves.
