[Stoves] Manure fuel at Stove Camp Fwd: The Aprovecho Newsletter - June 27th, 2014

[Paul Anderson]

To Aprovecho and all other Stovers,

Manure (dung) burning TLUD stoves will be featured (and rewarded) at 
Stove Camp.

Apro, please post to us (and in a newsletter) the characteristics of the 
dung/manure.   Including size, source animals, dryness (% MC) and any 
other relevant information.

Also at Camp (but not for a prize) will be Rice Hull / Husk burning 
TLUDs with testing for a Cambodia project.

All participants are invited to deal with any and all of the stove 
themes, and bring their own theme if they want to (better to tell us 
about those themes earlier so we can be prepared as best as possible).

/*Two Prizes at Upcoming Stove Camp */

Stove Camp is designed to assist small groups to solve stove problems. 
This year we are offering two prizes ($250) for:

 1. *The best TLUD burning manure*
 2. *The best bread oven*

The ARC staff will help the groups to build and test new wonderful 
inventions using state of the art emission equipment. After camp, we 
will write up what was learned and publish the results.

The teams that win also receive the coveted 2014 “Cat Pee” Awards, named 
in honor of Kirk Smith who tells the legendary cat pee story in his 
lectures. Three interns at ARC are learning every day how to burn manure 
(and found fuels from the forest) in TLUDs. And there are bread oven 
experts tuning up their entries. See banner below for reservation 
information!

	
/*11 Pounds of Fuel =
  66 Pounds of Food*/

Bread ovens can be extremely fuel efficient. It’s a lot easier to heat 
air than water! One of Larry Winiarski’s ovens baked 66 pounds of bread 
using 11 pounds of wood. The very hot gases flow in a small channel over 
the surface of a 33 gallon steel drum that is encased by a sealed 55 
gallon drum. As you can see in the drawing, the bread sits on shelves 
inside the inner drum. The hot gases first contact the bottom of the 
inner drum, then the sides and top, before exiting out the chimney. This 
is a “white” oven. The soot doesn’t touch the bread. “Black” ovens are 
great, too.

There will be many new types of bread ovens at this year's Stove Camp, 
beginning on July 21st and ending on July 25th. Let’s make ovens that 
will be astoundingly good! Eat bread, cookies, and cake with some 
delicious hot coffee at our beautiful new campus in the woods.

/*For reservation information at this year's Summer Stove Camp with 
Aprovecho, from July 21st through the 25th, please contact Mike Hatfield

We hope to see you there!*/
