Solution Overview & Benefits

The Biomass Stove is a gasifier stove with pre-heating and counter flow burning mechanism to complete the combustion. When standard-sized fuel is properly dried, the stove produces no smoke–significantly reducing health risks incurred from the thick black fumes of conventionally used stoves.

Features:

  • cooking requires only 3 logs of wood, 12 cm in length with 6 cm diameter
  • 80% more fuel efficient than traditional brick and stone stoves
  • fire in stove is more focused for faster cooking
  • requires less space than traditional stoves
  • can save households up to $20 per month when switching from kerosene stoves

History & Development

Many more feedbacks and improvements later, the UB.03-1, whose patent is currently being processed, offers the perfect solution. The stove is basically a gasifier stove, but with pre-heating and counter flow burning mechanism to complete the combustion. When standard-sized fuel is properly dried, the stove produces no smoke–significantly reducing health risks incurred from the thick black fumes of conventionally used stoves. Compared to traditional three-brick/stone stoves, the biomass UB.03-1 stove can save fuels up to 80%. A regular household switching from a kerosene stove can save up to USD $20 a month. With so many benefits to offer, communities are quick to convert to the new and improved stove.
