You are right, this is great!! Charcoal cooking in the second
stage in a stove that makes charcoal out of dry biomass with clean
combustion of gases created in the stove that makes gases from
that dry biomass!!!<br>
<br>
This variation of TLUD stoves is call TChar (tee-char), and is
described in several documents at <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.drtlud.com">www.drtlud.com</a> <br>
<br>
T is for TLUD, and Char is for charcoal stoves. TChar combines
these two stove types.<br>
<br>
Everyone should please note that the upper parts of the TChar
units create the charcoal, and lower part is actually a charcoal
stove of some type. The advocates of TLUD technology in
cookstoves generally do NOT recommend that charcoal is burned
inside of a regular TLUD, especially now that IMPROVED charcoal
stoves can be used as the base in the TChar stoves. <br>
There will be many developments coming with the TChar TLUDs,
especially in cultures in Africa and Haiti and elsewhere where
charcoal cooking is widely used. <br>

</div>
<div>We'll report soon on the results from the recent ARC/GIZ
Stove Camp 2012 focused on charcoal stoves.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Christa Roth brought a TLUD that burned the wood and then
burned up the made charcoal.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So great that the TLUD can be used this way!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I imagine urban folks, who probably do not need bio-char,
taking advantage of this option.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I also like to use the TLUD this way. Burning the wood is for
high power and then burning the made charcoal is for low power
simmering.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>And then it's possible to get into the ISO Tier 4 category
(over 45% thermal efficiency) with a TLUD.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Best,</div>
<div><br>
