Not correct. The stove type was not TLUD. It was essentially a
trickle-feed forced air pellet heater (as in the home heating units)
but made at the size of a cooking stove. Nice work, but not a TLUD
and no real chance to make charcoal because the pellets are burned
to ash under the streams of forced air. It might become very
successful. Good approach to designing changes. But also heavy
and expensive compared to the TLUD stoves that are currently having
great success in West Bengal.<br>

A well done article. Quite favorable on TLUDS. Main
surprise was that they never use the word “charcoal”. I think
they would see even better user acceptance if char (for sale or
biochar use) was an objective. The authors must not know of
this list.</div>

combustion of solid fuel for cooking and other
household energy needs leads to severe household air
pollution and adverse health impacts in adults and
children. Replacing traditional solid fuel stoves with
high efficiency, low-polluting semi-gasifier stoves
can potentially contribute to addressing this global
problem. The success of semi-gasifier cookstove
implementation initiatives depends not only on the
technical performance and safety of the stove, but
also the compatibility of the stove design with local
cooking practices, the needs and preferences of stove
users, and community economic structures. Many past
stove design initiatives have failed to address one or
more of these dimensions during the design process,
resulting in failure of stoves to achieve long-term,
exclusive use and market penetration. This study
presents a user-centered, iterative engineering design
approach to developing a semi-gasifier biomass
cookstove for rural Chinese homes. Our approach places
equal emphasis on stove performance and meeting the
preferences of individuals most likely to adopt the
clean stove technology. Five stove prototypes were
iteratively developed following energy market and
policy evaluation, laboratory and field evaluations of
stove performance and user experience, and direct
interactions with stove users. The most current stove
prototype achieved high performance in the field on
thermal efficiency (ISO Tier 3) and pollutant
emissions (ISO Tier 4), and was received favorably by
rural households in the Sichuan province of Southwest
China. Among household cooks receiving the final
prototype of the intervention stove, 88% reported
lighting and using it at least once. At five months
post-intervention, the semi-gasifier stoves were used
at least once on an average of 68% [95% CI: 43, 93] of
days. Our proposed design strategy can be applied to
other stove development initiatives in China and other
countries.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div>
