<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Dear Stovers and Biochar enthusiasts,<br>
<br>
I am forwarding to you the major news about the Servals Champion
TLUD-ND attaining Gold Standard registration!! I have added a
few comments into Sujatha's and Robert's messages to me (below).
<br>
<br>
Note that the second message below (from Robert of Atmosfair in
Germany) has a link where you can access substantial documentation
about the stove project.<br>
<br>
For the advancement of TLUD gasifier stoves and for the collection
of charcoal that they can produce, the accomplishments of Servals
and Atmosfair are extremely important. <br>
<br>

Note: Wendelbo had 5000 in Uganda in the 1990s, and BP had many
more that were with Forced Air (FA). And I do not have the latest
numbers of units by M. Nurhuda in Indonesia. But by all accounts,
the Servals/Atmosfair dissemination numbers are impressive. <br>

Note: About the same time, Art Donnelly was doing charcoal buyback
in Costa Rica, but his stove numbers are considerable less.<br>

note that the Sunderbans project is conduct in the mangrove

<p>The product has performed very well. The project
which was originally conceived with 5000 TLUDs based
on firewood saving and CO2 emission reduction, has now
been "resized" to 3000 TLUDs - which means the product
at 3000 numbers on the field has delivered the
equivalent saving of 5000 numbers in the lab.</p>

Note: We are excited by this reversal of the usual comment that the
field (implementation) results are lower than the lab results!!! I
request that Sujatha (Director of Servals) and her staff provide us
with some numbers (or reports) that supported this accomplishment.

<p>Our sincere thanks to you for bringing the product to

I just wanted to send a short and sweet note, sharing

Dear Sujatha,<br>
<br>
we finally achieved GS registration! Though there
are many GS and CDM cookstove projects around the
world, ours is the first registered carbon project
with gasifier stoves.<br>
Here is the link to the GS registry:<br>

Note: At this address there are several links to reports (.docx
and .pdf) that have location map and photos of stoves in the
community.<br>

And our project is certainly the the first one that
includes charcoal collection!<br>
Besides, I believe it is the largest activity
disseminating gasifier stoves in the world!<br>
<br>
And I guess it also the one that is best organised
on the local level.<br>

Note: I (Dr TLUD) commented already about the above 3
statements. I want to be sure that all parties get their
appropriate recognition. <br>
<br>
But I also what to emphasize that the rigorous evaluations and
monitoring of a TLUD gasifier stove project to attain the Gold
Standard registration have never been accomplished before. Servals
and Atmosfair and the communities involved in the project all
deserve great recognition. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!<br>
