[Stoves] Kampala briquetting

[Richard Stanley]

Dear Paul  ssebo,

Since you are in Kampala,  why not call up a few trained briquetters starting with the UWESO organization right there in Nagaseru hill (the one containing the fancy hotels and conference center and bordering the  main business district. 

Since we (= ourselves,  Kenyan and other Ugandan trainers) trained them in 2007, there are now about 1000 producers operating nation wide. 
UWESO (at least eh briquetting component is headed by a one Bosco Epila, Ag.Programme Director & Socio-Economic Programme Manager

Xavier and all,

The usage as airplane fuel does not interest me, but the gathering of plastic and making it into something usable as a fuel is very interesting.

I am involved with a project in Kampala, Uganda with neighborhood cleanup and making briquettes.   But we do not have a use for the plastic which is all over the place.

Does anyone have info about perhaps "melting" the plastic into blocks, or some other way to utilize the plastic?
