Dear AD,
If the oxygen content of the combustion air ( normally around 21 % ) is
raised even slightly ( say upto around 25 % ) using a molecular sieve, it
will make a dramatic improvement in the performance of any wood stove.
The only question is the cost involved and the availability of a suitable
equipment.
I had raised this issue earlier in this list - but did not find any
response.
Regards,
Rajan

Dear Friends,
thanks for enlightening me about molecular sieves. From the information
received from members of the gasification and pyrolysis group, it appears
to be within the realm of possibility to produce pyrolysis gas without
nitrogen. This opens up the possibility of bottling nitrogen free producer
gas and using it as automotive fuel. Even a TLUD stove would burn much
better if supplied with primary air without nitrogen.
Yours
A.D.Karve
