[Stoves] Vietnam Biocharbn Gasifier Stove Prof. Tran Binh (Vietnam)

[Paul Anderson]

Dear Prof. Tran Binh,

We greatly appreciate your contributions about gasifiers.   ALL that we 
have about TLUD stoves is freely given to you, including at my 
website:    www.drlud.com

Please tell us more about your fuel.   Is the source wood fully 
pyrolyzed or only torrified?
