Cooking with traditional three-stone fires is inefficient and detrimental to health and the environment. Biomass gasification presents a promising alternative for clean cooking in developing countries. This study focused on the development of an enhanced biomass gasifier charcoal stove optimized for performance. A bottom-up fabrication approach was employed to design components like the combustion chamber, grate, insulator, stove body, etc. using mild steel and stainless steel. Engineering design parameters related to cost, safety, and thermal properties were incorporated. Finite element analy

Abstract:

Improved cooking stove (ICS) has provided the emerging opportunities, especially in the developing nations, considering the fact that it is more efficient and environment friendly than conventional cooking stoves. The paper briefly discusses about the design optimization of ICS. Current models are designed predominantly based on maximum energy conversion rather than coupling it with the original habits of users. There are various factors to be considered during the design of the cooking stove. The optimum design has the maximum efficiency resulting in low carbon emission, low kitchen indoor po

In sub-Saharan Africa, dependence on wood fuel has caused significant depletion of vegetative resources.

A significant factor contributing to deforestation is the expanding human populations' increasing demands on forests and forest products. In many areas, rural households rely solely on fuelwood collected from the forest for their domestic energy supply. Fuel-saving stoves, or improved cook-stoves, have been introduced to reduce fuelwood consumption and thus alleviate deforestation, but there is frequently little or no formal monitoring and evaluation of programmes; their success as both a development and a resource-conservation tool is therefore undetermined.

While a range of improved cook-stoves (ICS) is available in the market, since decades with a number of new entrants from recent years, adoption is still low in many developing regions, such as sub-Saharan Africa, also because stove performance is sometimes found to be deficient.

Abstract:

Abstract Solid biomass dominates as the primary source of cooking energy, especially in rural households of Nepal. The use of solid biomass has a detrimental effect on health, exacerbates the burden of biomass collection, and hampers access to clean energy. Understanding the factors influencing the choice of modern cooking fuels is crucial to improving energy security and resilience and easing the transition to clean fuels. This study evaluates technological choices for the transition in cooking energy from the perspective of experts working in the government, non-government, and academia sect

Abstract:

The induction stove transition program in Sandik Village, Batulayar District, West Lombok Regency, was initiated to support the government's push for more efficient and eco-friendly energy use. Despite the benefits of induction stoves-such as energy efficiency, safety, and environmental advantages-LPG remains the dominant cooking fuel due to limited public awareness. The program involved education, practical demonstrations, and efficiency comparisons between induction and gas stoves, while also identifying challenges like limited household electricity and entrenched cooking habits.

Abstract:

Energy sources such as; fuel wood, charcoal, kerosene and others play vital role in meeting local energy demand in many Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) countries.Their usage is closely linked with economic development, poverty reduction and the provision of vital services. Until recently, kerosene was popularly used as domestic fuel which is greatly due to its availability, low cost, ease of handling and relatively safe but these are not the same anymore due to high cost of procurement and scarcity. Hence, this study of energy evaluation and comparative analysis of improved charcoal stove and kerosen

Abstract:

Biomass burning for home energy use is a major environmental health concern. Improved cooking technologies could generate environmental health benefits, yet prior results regarding reduced personal exposure to air pollution are mixed. In this study, two improved stove types were distributed over four study groups in Northern Ghana. Participants wore real-time carbon monoxide (CO) monitors to measure the effect of the intervention on personal exposures. Relative to the control group (those using traditional stoves), there was a 30.3% reduction in CO exposures in the group given two Philips forc

This paper presents results from eight field studies in Asia and Africa on the emissions performance of 16 stove/fuel combinations measured during normal cooking events in homes. Characterizing real-world emissions performance is important for understanding the climate and health implications of technologies being promoted as alternatives to displace baseline cooking stoves and fuels. Almost all of the stove interventions were measured to have substantial reductions in PM2.5 and CO emissions compared to their respective baseline technologies (reductions of 24–87% and 25–80%, for PM2.5 and CO e

The continued large-scale use of inefficient flame-based cookstoves directly influences human development levels globally, including in South Africa. It has been demonstrated that the adoption and sustained use of safe, inexpensive, and improved stove designs by households could lead to a significant reduction in household air pollution. From an examination of descriptions of previous improved cookstove dissemination programs, it becomes apparent that a focus on customer preferences was absent in many of the unsuccessful projects.

In this research work, a 3 kW stove based on biomass gasification, together with a fuel obtained from agriculture wastes as an alternative to the commonly used charcoal, have been developed looking for sustainable cooking in poor communities. Alternative fuel (BSW) are briquettes obtained by carbonization and densification of agricultural solid wastes. Two laboratory methods, water boil test (WBT) and controlled kitchen test (CCT) were used to analyze the performance of this approach by comparing the proposed improved stove (ICS-G) with the traditional one (TCS), when using both types of fuels

A majority of people in developing countries use biomass energy for cooking and heating due to its affordability, accessibility and convenience. However, unsustainable biomass use leads to forest degradation and climate change. Therefore, this study was carried out in Kwale County, Kenya, on the use of a biochar-producing gasifier cook stove and implications of its uptake on livelihoods and the environment. Fifty households were trained and issued with a gasifier for free. After 2–3 months of gasifier use, a survey was conducted to investigate the implications of its uptake. The direct impacts

Household air pollution from solid fuel cooking causes millions of deaths each year and contributes to climate change. These emissions can be reduced if households transition to cleaner cooking fuels such as LPG or biogas, yet emission measurements during actual use are limited. Six LPG and 57 biogas cooking event emissions were measured during typical cooking practices in Nepal. Emission factors are reported for elemental carbon (EC), organic carbon (OC), particulate matter (PM 2.5 ), and carbon monoxide (CO) and compared to measurements from wood stoves in the same households.
