[Stoves] Stoves Digest, Vol 39, Issue 11

Dear Stovers, 
After seeing the tragedy unfold yet again in the Philippines I would like to put the Jompy forward as both a water pasteuriser and a fuel saving device creating a sturdy pot stand for the cooking vessels. A fire as basic as a 3 stone or even a basic jiko, even a tlud gasifier can be used. The last time I offered I was told send CASH! This time I hope this will not be the case. Any interest please contact me on 00441292318194
UK landline. 
The jompy has an immediate effect and is currently saving fuel and time in many communities. It has a place in the disaster scenario. 

David Osborne, 
Technical Director

> A niggling point: SODIS is NOT pasteurization. As far as I understand, it works largely by ultraviolet irradiation, along with a degree of temperature elevation well short of pasteurization temperatures. According to information (promoting pasteurization) that I have read online, it is less effective than pasteurization, which can also be achieved without fuel by using solar heating. However, SODIS is clearly far better than nothing, and it can be implemented straight away by the direct use of easily available equipment (plastic bottles and a bit of cloth).

The clean cookstove making biochar can be a life saving device as it can help people cook their food and produce their clean water while waiting for the relief aids. It should also be one that can be used with wood sticks as most people do not have access to pelletizing or briquetting machines and wood sticks are abundant after the typhoons.?

Felipa Beach sustained structural damage during the October storm and earthquake but fortunately survived typhoon Haiyan without any further damage.  The Eco-Kalan Project and our partner, the 302nd Infantry Brigade of the Philippines Army, are preparing to deploy six large Eco-Kalan-C  each to critical emergency shelters in  Central Visayas.   From our experience, six Eco-Kalan-C can cook enough food for 1,000 people at mealtime.  We are looking at this time for large capacity pots and woks such as the ones we used at the July Approvecho stove camp (40-60 liter capacity);  and portable biomass stoves that can hold these cooking vessels and can  cook continuously  large volumes of food for long periods of time.  Do you know who can donate these large capacity cooking vessels and stoves? Thanks,
