Hello and thanks for responding.<br><br> So lets start with this. I am no where near as educated in the scientific language as this group, no doubt. What I have created is a double burn system which can go for up to 12 hours in one 5 lb log. I see NO SMOKE from our 3"stack once I get to a temperature of over 600 deg. f. Our secondary combustion temps run in excess of 1500 deg. F. creating a smokeless burn for hours, and can be reloaded during use. I do realize that Coal (not a favorite of mine) does burn differently and I would like to test my stove on this fuel so as to have the chance to tweek my unit to burn it cleanly. I am reading and trying to understand all that I can. Sometimes I think that too much science makes things too complex. Maybe being a simple guy without all the math is what helped me do what I did. Either way there is no way of getting around the fact that what this stove does do is to get more heat energy out of the same fuel load, and releasing less into the environment. Both are characteristics necessary for attacking these issues. By the way we watched this work in the puget sound area, why could it not work in Mongolia? <br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Tue, 26 Jul 2011 02:35:57 +0000<br>From: rongretlarson@comcast.net<br>To: stoves@lists.bioenergylists.org<br>Subject: [Stoves] Coal stoves in Mongolia<br><br>

I understand they use 4 metric tones a year by 1,300,000 yurts per year. I think I could cut this down to less than one ton, but need a sample of this stuff.<br><br></span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D"></span></p><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D">Saving coal is not as straight forward as burning less. The need for heat is absolute, meaning that you have to deliver an average of 4kW minimum into the home. If the system is 80% efficient it means having a 5kW fire going constantly.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D">The number of yurts (gers, as they are called) is about 100,000 with the number declining slowly as people build more permanent housing. Coal is not used outside Ulaanbaatar domestically, and in fact viewed historically is only a recently used fuel.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D">I am interested in know what you think of as ‘clean’ with your coal burner. We are expressing the emissions in terms of heat delivered into the home so that the figure incorporates the thermal efficiency into the number. For stoves receiving a subsidy to the homeowner, the CO limit is 7 g/MJ delivered and PM2.5 is 70 mg/MJ. Some stoves are below 1 mg/MJ which is extremely clean. One is a crossdraft and the other is a TLUD that can be refuelled under certain circumstances. They are very different to look at.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D">The coal consumption per urban domestic home is 4,500 kg per year on average, burning about 1 kg per hour in winter. The coal is from the Nalaikh Mine, mostly, and the analysis is 25% moisture, 50% volatiles after drying and 8-12% ash. The sulphur is very low at <0.4%.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D">It lights easily and has enormous volumes of smoke if placed on a burning fire (which is the main air quality problem in UB). If a TLUD is refuelled hot, it is a nightmare. It is essential that the stove be refuelled for continuous operation. That has led to hopper stoves having the most promise. </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D">The qualifying stoves range from $80 to $160 and one imported TLUD made of cast iron with a ceramic liner is $275 or so. The cleanest, cheap stove is a crossdraft burner with a flame tube for the smoke and CO to burn inside the heat exchanger. This layout has been successful in several very different products.</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D">Regards</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D">Crispin</span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D"> </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:'Calibri','sans-serif';color:#1F497D"> </span></p><div><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:'Tahoma','sans-serif'">> Date: Mon, 25 Jul 2011 06:33:04 +0200<br>> From: <a href="mailto:rwhongser@web.de">rwhongser@web.de</a><br>> To: <a href="mailto:stoves@lists.bioenergylists.org">stoves@lists.bioenergylists.org</a>; <a href="mailto:crispinpigott@gmail.com">crispinpigott@gmail.com</a><br>> Subject: Re: [Stoves] WorldStove replies to BioFuelWatyche's latestimprecisereporting of facts.<br>> <br>> Dear Crispin,<br>> <br>> 2SISTLUDPSXDCPZ-RF<br>> <br>> There, I think we're making progress now.<br>> <br>> Ronald von der AS(BY)EAA<br>> <br>> p.s.
