[Stoves] Pellet fuel for stoves in Africa

[Inversiones Falcon]

 Hi, Paul, this is Gustavo, our government just approved a pilot program to build 10 Bambu houses, every house must be environmental friendly, I´m designing a TLUD stove with 2 burners, the final prototype will be ready in a couple of weeks, every stove will be a carrousel type or 2 separate TLUD stoves, anyway I hope this program can open the eyes of many people.see attached files. of my design.I´m taking the idea of Art Donelly, but I think is going to be smaller.
Best regards to all

Several questions:
 
  
 
1.  What is the source of the pellet data figure?
 
  
 
[PSA>>] Probably from  Christian Rakos, a pellet industry leader in Europe (Austria based).
 
  
 
2.  The dominant figure  feature is the growth in China - approximately doubling every two years (annual growth rate around 35%).   Is there any data to show that many of the pellets are heading for char-making stoves (which might be a growing industry?).  I think there is pellet use for electrical generation in China.
 
[PSA>>]   Save to assume that very little is for char-making.   Significant amount for home heating stoves.
 
  
 
3.  The Chinese interest in pellets and biochar might be related to air quality - trying to eliminate historic burning of crop residue in the fields.  
 
[PSA>>] Yes.
 
  
 
I read of concerns about African fields also intentionally fired every year;  can that concern be a factor in Africa in favor of pellets?  (I am suggesting trying to emulate China.)[PSA>>]  No.   Just trying to have fuel for cooking (and for the new TLUD-FA stoves that are coming on  now)..   Ambient air pollution is not a problem but not a cause for African interest in pellets.
