[Stoves] Bulk density of LPG vs pellets

[Norbert Senf]

 Paul, I don't know the answer to your question, but I once hauled some
grape
juice in my work truck for friends who were making wine. It was a one-way
trip, as the
truck was empty on the way home from a job about 400 miles away.

I calculated that each litre of wine would have 80ml of diesel embodied in
it from
the transport of the juice.

The calculation was pretty simple, as I knew the mpg of the truck and the
distance.

Dear Stovers and friends,

I hope that someone can provide an answer to this question:

The situation:? A fuel for cooking needs to be transported to
communities in somewhat remote locations. ? There are roads that at
least allow a pickup truck to go in and out year-round.? The people have
access to locally sources woody biomass fuel, but are interested in
having some better stoves with processed fuels. ? In particular, they
are considering LPG in standard bottles/tanks that are brought in full,
and empties are taken back. ?? (snip)
