Dear Kevin
Dr Antal has posted here before not so? Maybe he will respond. The pressure involved is about 6 bars and the yield 45-50%. >…many of the tar components would not decompose, and would remain with the >char. But remember that pressurising the system also makes it easier for the reactions to take place, breaking thing down. Be prepared to be surprised. >I am also guessing that when such charcoals were burned, they would be smoky. You are blaming the fuel for the performance of the stove! :) If a charcoal stove is well made it does not smoke, tars or no tars. Regards Crispin
