<div>Thanks James</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I really like your suggestion on diverting my research on the biodiesel stove to using that of plant oil or cooking</div>
<div>oil. I have looked at the link you gave and saw the Aristo stoves which looks very ok. My question is, could that</div>
<div>same stove use the biodiesel fuel? Since the biodiesel am using is made from cooking oil?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>And my reason for using biodiesel is because of the availability of it here in Kenya therefore am working</div>
<div>from the fuel to the stove i.e. I first have the fuel now I need to utilise my fuel in cooking.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Crispin, could you please give us a lot more information to support your thought on biodiesel burning a lot more </div>
<div>easier?<br><br></div>

Subject: [Stoves] MY BIODIESEL STOVE PROJECT<br><br>David Wanjagi<br><br>I have a different perspective I suggest you should consider. Why go to all<br>the trouble and expense to burn biodiesel when you can 1) use the seeds as<br>
Paul Anderson suggests or 2)use the oil without further processing into<br>biodiesel.<br><br>I believe you can find stove designs that will burn straight vegetable oil.<br><br>Of course this assumes that vegetable oil is cheaper than biodiesel and the<br>
climate is warm enough that the higher viscosity of vegetable oil (compared<br>to Biodiesel) is not a problem.<br><br>I am sure there are several oil stove designs on the<br><a href="http://www.stoves.bioenergylists.org/" target="_blank">www.stoves.bioenergylists.org</a> site. Here is the first one I ran across.<br>
<a href="http://stoves.bioenergylists.org/chaearisto" target="_blank">http://stoves.bioenergylists.org/chaearisto</a><br><br>These stoves look more complicated to build than the TLUD Paul Anderson is<br>suggesting which would burn jatropha and other oil seeds.<br>
<br>I know you are set on designing a biodiesel stove. But you made that<br>decision without research. Now that you have done some further research,<br>you should reconsider you premise.<br><br>Jim Hensel<br>Portland, Oregon USA<br>
