Project Goals

1. Investigate the efficiency of the current charcoal stove and improve the design as needed.

2. Investigate and work out a method for developing alternative fuels, this involves:
          a. Press and Pressing equipment
          b. Selection of organic materials for fuel.
          c. Mixing methods.
          d. Production System for producing alternative fuels.

3. Investigate the use of and cost of an interior concrete block stove with ventilation outside.

It is my intent to have all the above developed and tested, in my backyard, and return to the Dominican this summer, for a month to:
1. Introduce the new design of the charcoal stove and produce at least 6.
2. Investigate and produce organic briquettes.
3. Build at least two concrete block stoves.
