[Stoves] Wattle cuttings - some more corrections regarding the ELSA stove

[Tom Miles]

Christa,


Thanks for the description and the links. The BocharPlus project also
evolved into the African Biochar Partnership (ABP) which was created a last
year. Dr. Bah Saho, ECREEE, is the director of that project and also a
director of the International Biochar Initiative. We are currently
discussing way in which IBI can support ABP.

Dear Paul, 

you said 

1.  The mentioned Elsa stove is not by Dave Lello, but is by David Young

 

I would like to correct that: the stove known as the ELSA stove was not
invented by David Young. The link
http://stoves.bioenergylists.org/content/elsa-stove  was posted by him to
write about how he built one on according to the ELSA stove blueprints from
the web. 

 

The ELSA stove was invented in the framework of a EU funded Biochar project
by a group of researchers from the Italian University of Udine. Find more on
the ELSA stove and the project on
https://sites.google.com/site/biocharplusproject/home 

 

the company Blucomb later emerged from that group
http://www.blucomb.com/en/home/

 

 

It is also featured in the GIZ-HERA manual microgasification
https://energypedia.info/wiki/File:Micro_Gasification_2.0_Cooking_with_gas_f
rom_dry_biomass.pdf  





In Ghana I just ELSA stoves with a sturdy frame and either single or double
burners which function very well. Apparently over 2,000 units were made and
sold by artisans in the Cape Coast province in Ghana. 

Best regards

Christa
