About Improved cookstovesLiterature reports that the three stones open fire (TSF) persists as the most prevalent fuel-using technology to cook the meals in the villages and urban slums of the developing world. Traditional stoves have been around for thousands of years and have evolved to meet the local needs in a way that is affordable for the users. There are many sophisticated types of traditional stoves, ranging from mud stoves to heavy brick stoves to metal ones The fuel-efficiency of traditional stoves are said to be approximately five to ten percent. Since nearly three billion people in the world use traditional stoves to cook their meals, efforts to improve the efficiency of cookstoves have been increasingly popular in the developing world. But it is a hard task to offer improved stoves at an affordable price to households even if they are more fuel efficient. |
