Improved Mali Stove

Dear Friends

I have heard confirmation from FASENi in Dakar (Senegal) that the women cooking at the ProBECi head office are using 50% less charcoal with their 'improved Malgach' stove (pronounced mal-gash).

CO/CO2 Ratio in the Charcoal Stoves Tested at Aprovecho (pdf)
Dean Still, Aprovechoi Research Center, June 23, 2006

The following graph plots the levels of COi and CO2 during one test each of the charcoal burning rocket stove and Jiko-type charcoal stove from Ghana. A higher level of CO2 suggests a higher burn rate of fuel.

It can be seen that even though the COi level for the rocket drops below 10 ppm, the CO2 level remains high suggesting a high firepower continues. The Ghana charcoal stove has a lower level of CO2 with a considerably higher level of COi.

Comparing the Charcoal Burning Rocket and Jiko Stoves (pdf)

The charcoal Rocket Stove was compared to the Jiko-type charcoal stove sent from Ghana. 600 grams of Kingsford charcoal was placed in the stoves under the Aprovechoi emissions hood. One test was performed on each stove for preliminary studies. The stoves are compared in the following graph for carbon monoxide emissions during a cooking task (to boil 5L of water and simmer 30 minutes).
