[Stoves] Bioethanol (stoves) fireplaces to be baned in Norway due to several serious incidents of burns

Fri Jan 25 16:34:02 CST 2013

Dear Otto

Is there an alcohol-burning device put into the fireplace? What is it they
are refilling?

Thanks
Crispin

Dear stovers,

To your information:

Bioethanol, a very clean burning fuel, but due to a lot of incidents and
several people burned during the refilling process, will most likely be
baned to be used in open fireplaces in Norway, very soon.

Liquid fuel should be treated with care and caution in an open fire
situation.

Lessons learned should be communicated to the people introducing these type
of fuel and stoves for cooking in developing countries, too.

Good luck with the ETHOS conference in Seattle

Otto
