Interesting idea........Are the any records kept on how cleanly and or how much maintenance might be involved. Example.....corn feed stoves have allot of klinkering due to the sugar content if I understand correctly. We might be able to utilize more of these fuels than I realize at this point as I have not had enough time to test these things out. Our focus has had to stay more narrow than I would like due to the "business side" of our growth. I did for a while mess with burning Glycerine from bio diesel manufacturing. Althoe I have not dismissed this avenue I do feel it is a messy process. The glycerine heats up and "melts" much like paraffin wax and could become a fire hazard. I am interested as I am coming to a point of less business and more inventing to try alternative fuel sources......any ideas???<br>Thank you R&B <br><br><div><hr id="stopSpelling">From: crispinpigott@gmail.com<br>To: stoves@lists.bioenergylists.org<br>Date: Sun, 7 Aug 2011 14:36:59 -0400<br>Subject: [Stoves] Jatropha and its future<br><br>

Perhaps if the J-oil industry suffers a quick death there will still be a meaningful supply of oily seed fuel that can be burned relatively easily with a decent performance and controllability. At least until they go back to sunflower which looks a lot more promising.</p><p class="ecxMsoNormal">Has anyone made a sunflower seed burning stove?
