Dear Stovers,

A Gasifier Stove Camp will be held from 21 through 26 May in Kakamega, western Kenya.    It will be highly specific about the latest innovations for making larger numbers of gasifier TLUD stoves for developing countries, especially with substantial labor (job creation) and minimal capital.

Basic details are at       www.drtlud.com    .

The camp is hosted by KEFRI (Kenyan Forestry Research Institute), and there will be significant attention to issues of fuels, including bamboo and wood-segments that can be placed vertically in the TLUD fuel chamber.

Other gasifier stove camps are in:    (details at    www.drtlud.com    )  (each has different foci along with core elements important to all):

Massachusetts (USA) 6 - 10 August,
Tennessee (USA) 1 -5 September (Labor Day weekend plus 2 optional days), and
Honduras (in Spanish) 24 - 28 September

Note also that the Aprovecho stove camp in Oregon USA (unconfirmed info) with a focus on charcoal stoves is on 30 July to 3 August.  This allows stovers (including international visitors who are flying across America) to attend back-to-back Stove Camps with significantly different focal issues.

Please also note that USBI (US Biochar Initiative) is holding a four-day meeting (with biochar production practical sessions) on 29 July to 1 August in Sonoma Valley California (north and inland from San Francisco).

Looking forward to seeing you at some of these future events.

Paul  /  Dr TLUD     (currently in Uganda, and heading to Kenya)
