    My memory of that discussion is vague.  And I do not have active
    contacts in Indonesia.   Could you please try to get some updated
    info about thoae stoves and the fuel usage and the char production
    and the destination of that char?  <br>

            not as much wood. Dr Nurhuda introduced (through government

          Good that your did the monetary exchange rates and the
          conversion from C to CO2e to get the cost per ton.   That
          needs to be done with the raw numbers for the Deganga TLUD
          project in India.   I will ask the project implementer to make
          those calculations and sent them to me.  <br>
          <br>
          We need to build the case for the value of the char from TLUD
          stoves.   Whether sold to be burned or to be used as biochar
          is not the issue.  
          <br>
          <br>
          I have not heard of other TLUD projects with selling of the
          charcoal made in TLUDs.   Maybe Prime has an example???<br>

                                    produced about 20% charcoal, which
                                    is being placed in soil as biochar.
