Hi Boston I volunteered with EWB Australia in Nepal working on a clean dung burning stove and thus worked with the dung as a fuel . Washing of the dung was done and briquettes which was a real success. Paper pulp used as a binder worked really well. Also the chloride contents of the dung which is responsible for watery eyes was removed on washing the dung which was proven by the copper wire test. We even fabricated a simple dung press for the same. The liquid portion of the dung was reutilised as manure in the fields. Thus the whole sceptism about "should" use dung as manure in the fields and not as a cooking fuel was somewhat solved. Did not test the NPK contents of the liquid portion though...
