I from Bangladesh. In our country, many of people use wooden stoves for cooking. You people can establish a factory in our country and open a business hear. It helps to reduce our firewood consumption and cost-effective for our rural poor people. We all are benefited by to save our ecosystems. If you are interested you may contact our local entrepreneur to establish a business and cheap rate manpower is also available in our country. However, if you want, you may contact me.
Wow, this is amazing of jikokoa stove. Do you have branch office in Uganda Kampala,for we citizens to own this wonderful. Plse needed by one by one of us. And the cost
These thieves... There are a few Kenyan that started making similar stoves... These people are just there to capitalize on a market. Why the hell would thet need a loan to buy that small of a product that should be worth $10 US dollars
Sorry you got the concept totally wrong. This is only half the solution and should have had a TLUD gasifier cooktop included in the design. Check out Dr Paul Andersons charcoal TLUD for Haiti. That way the cook can manufacture their own charcoal from non-tree biomass.
It's better if you find other things to use for the stove. Like zero cutting trees for charcoal. I'm very sure your stove will help the global warming.
Wouldn't solar stoves be better in such a sunny place? And how about heat retention cooking? She could heat the pot and put it in a heat retainer for the day and that would use a fraction of the fuel that she is using now.Heat retainers can be made with almost anything. I made mine with some old towels and a box. They could be made with sand and a hole in the ground. And with the solar oven, it would require no expenditure on fuel. The sun is free. A solar oven can be made with cardboard and aluminium foil. So these single moms need not go into debt to make one.
I live in Udupi, a town on the south-west coast. Lot of coconut wood-shells and paddy husk is going waste. Stationary,sturdy stoves are my dream. Help me please.
True, burns charcoal a little more efficiently. Issue is, trees are still being felled to fuel these stoves. There's got to be a better way to save trees MUCH MUCH needed in Africa and zero emission cooking. African should have invested in solar by now. The infrastructure is there, desert as far as they eyes can see, plateaus galore can harness wind power, a good distribution network can provide electricity to power electric ranges designed to work with solar.
There are a lot of that here in Cotabato City but you still damage the environment because if you had a sack of wood only 40% of it will become charcoal 60% is lost
The problem with paddy husk is it requires very high heat to ignite. Two engineering students had,as early as 1994,had designed a stove,in Siddaganga engg. college,Tumkur.
