Correct me if I am wrong but I am under the impression that Roger Sampson's
Mayon Turbo Stove is designed to do just this kind of job?

Dear Paul
I find you report encouraging. People already see the value of making a
high
energy fuel from a pretty lousy biomass, and it is only a short step to
using the gas as well for any of a variety of purposes. I am inclined to
think that a large scale process heat application will give a better
quality
or at least consistent product.
Is there a missing technology: a stove that burns the whole rice hull
instead of making char? Perhaps as a slightly compressed block or
cylinder
whole rice hull could be made attractive, clean and efficient in the
correct
device.
I do not know whether a stove can efficiently burn rice husk.
But it seems rice husk can be burnt efficiently in FBC ( fluidised bed
combustion ) boilers. There are several medium sized FBC boilers operated
all over India. So the fuel need not go waste.
Regards,
Rajan
