Hi Otto,

 

What are the 'standard fuel types' and 'quality factors' used in
Scandinavia?

Dear Tom and all,

 

Does that mean "no more" focus on emissions, since those water boiling tests
mainly look into fuel efficiency, as far as I can see.

If thats the fact, I find it "very much basic" and not very "promising" for
the future to come and the struggle to reduce greenhouse gases and clean
indoor air.

There are a certain link between efficiency and clean burn, but not as clear
as clean burn and less or "none" emissions.

 

What about a standard for type of fuels, linked to the moisture content and
other quality factors, like we have here in Scandinavia?

 

Otto

>From the PCIA meeting in den Haag:

 

The group here in den Haag has put forward an IWA (international Working
Agreement) in hopes of establishing a baseline for stove standardization
with the ISO.  It's starting at the very basics - VITA WBT 4.0 - but they
wanted to start somewhere.

 

Does anyone attending have more to add?

 

Thanks

 

Tom
