Dear Dean
 
Agreed. I believe that Ernestine’s doctoral work with you for a year is a good 
indication that this is also true for wood.
 
For those who have not seen her thesis, it was a comparison of emissions for 
low, medium and high moisture fuels and how different stoves handled it.
 
Gus: The people in Java use the charcoal remaining from fires to warm the wood 
for tomorrow. This is important because it affects the fuel use that must be 
attributed to a meal (the char is not thrown away but it is consumed each day) 
and it means they are operating at a high system efficiency considering the 
drying that is being accomplished.

Hi All,
 
I find that pellets burn cleaner in TLUDs when at about 10% to 15% moisture 
content like sticks of wood. In both cases a slower burn helps to meter the 
fuel.
 
Best,
 
Dean
