> Dear Igho,
>
> Thanks for your inquiry,
>
> There have been several others from Nigeria who have made inquiries about
> briquetting. I would be happy to forward their names to you if you like,
> but none have apparently implemented anything —that we know of. (They may
> well have done but ther is no communication from them to indicate this, to
> date).
>
> We would recommned that you obtain out starter kit of four manuals ( How
> to make and maintain our basic but rugged hand press; How to make
> briquettes  with it; How to train others and plan a project for same, and
> finally; the basic Theory and Applications of the technology across the
> globe. If purchased as a set the four manuals are available for the reduced
> cost of 85 usd.
>
> We then provide free online technical assistance throughout the learning
> process to minimise any frustration you may encounter during the learning
> process. Once that is over you will possibly wnat to discuss more expanded
> produciton capacity and we are here to assist you in that as well.
>
> As concersn stoves several have developed and focused on stoves spcicialy
> designed for use with briquettes. Please look at the work of Rok Oblak and
> Joshua Guinto who have both published their work through the stoves and
> biofuels network. <Stoves at lists.bioenergylists.org>

> I Look forward to being of assistance ,

> my search, I came upon the topic \"Biomass\". In my search to know what
> \"Biomass\" is, I came upon \"Biomass Briquettes\" and further search
> brought me to the website of Legacy Foundation! For the past few days, I

> > This subject has therefore been of intense interest to me, particularly
> with respect to providing solutions to pollution challenges of wastes,
> which constitute serious pollution to the environment, by recycling them
> into profitable products! The briquette perspective is very inviting
> business-wise but, more in particular, as a source of renewable energy
> alternative to present  depletable fossil sources upon which my country is
> heavily dependent! Lots of biomass materials for the production of
> briquettes abound in Nigeria.

> > Areas of interest are:
> > (i) training in the production of biomass briquettes, on an initial
> small scale.
> > (ii) production equipment.
> > (iii) services into which the briquettes can be utilized (devices like
> stoves for    cooking/heating with briquettes, etc.).
> > (iv) marketing of the product.
> > (v) any other relevant applications of briquettes.
