[Stoves] Free webinar on automated wood stoves

Sat Jun 17 07:58:44 CDT 2017

Stovers,

This free webinar will give a glimpse of the future for biomass 
cookstoves in developing societies.   The presenters will discuss 
wood-log (cord-wood) and pellet devices for heating rooms.   And they 
will use "costly" (for our purposes) electronic sensors and controls.   
But it will show what could be only a few years away for residential 
cooking with wood pieces and maize cobs, etc.

At first it will be expensive, but prices will come down as methods and 
devices improve.  I think about TLUD-FA (fan assisted) stoves. A single 
batch of pellets could give controlled heat for an hour (or two??) with 
a complete shut-down (and/or an alarm to call attention of the user).

Technology of cookstoves will follow the patterns set by automobiles 
(self-driving is here already) and computers and smart phones.

It is great to know that this work for combustion (including stoves) is 
underway.

I have a time conflict that day that I hope to be able to resolve.

Paul
