Alex, you have a good memory! the chap was Klas Heising from GIZ Bolivia, and yes, they did try TLUDs at 4,0000 m above sea level, apparently with success. not sure if with Alpacca dung, but I know that eucalyptus seed worked very well.
Klas is copied in, he is now in Germany, but I hope he will find time to give a better explanation of what they did and how they got it to work. I remember having seen a higher riser to create more draft. regards Christa Am 13.02.2013 um 06:54 schrieb Alex English <[email protected]>: > There were some chaps from South American highlands at Ethos a few years ago > who were asking if a TLUD would work with Alpaca ( or related critter) dung > pellets.
