Dear Dean and all,
I know of at least 5 TLUDs, each from a separate PCIA Partner, that
have been proposed for testing by Jim Jetter for this third round.
The Aprovecho offer of a free tune up under the emissions hood is
nice. Is that offer matched by Zamorano in Honduras or CREEC in
Uganda or any other place with PEMS equipment?
Question: Does a person need to go to Oregon, or could the stove be
sent with instructions? Cottage Grove is only convenient and
inexpensive for those who live within a hundred miles!!
And does Aprovecho have the SAME fuels as what Jim will be using? By
the way, what are the acceptable fuels now at the EPA testing?
Another question is how is the WBT used by the EPA different from
which version of the other WBT's? I would like a short summary, not
just a reference to multi-page documents where the methods are written
but the differences are not pointed out.
BTW, what TLUDs have been tested previously???
??? With fans: Oorja (yes) and Reed Campstove (??) and BioLyte
(??) and Belonio (??) others?
??? And natural draft: Peko Pe (?) and experimental unit from
StoveTec (yes) and what else?

Quoting Dean Still <[email protected]>:
Hi Stovers!
Sorry to have been out of touch. My email was messed up in a subtle way.
Jim Jetter (EPA/PCIA) is doing a second round of stove testing. He is
finding out fantastic things about emissions, testing, etc. We are very
lucky to have such a great guy and activity going on.
Natural draft TLUDs were shown in the first round to successfully compete
with fan stoves for low fuel use and emissions. Congratulations to Tom Reed,
Paal Wendelbo, Paul Anderson, Ron Larson, Christa Roth, etc who invented and
developed the TLUD!
To those who are going to submit a TLUD to Jim, please feel free, if you'd
like, to come to our lab for a free tune up using the emissions hood.
Strong hot coffee, Fall in Oregon, super low emissions. What could be
better?
All Best,
Dean
