“…Published works of some researchers relate to the sequence from the traditional to improved stoves, generally to the estimation of performance using WBT, KPT, and CCT tests . A few researchers have worked on the quantification of the emissions , selection of fuels and a few others have explicitly undertaken numerical and simulation analysis using CFD . Sulilatu and Krist‐Spit have established the Tamilnadu metal stove for cooking for school children.…”

In this article, an attempt has been made to design a new updraft fixed bed advanced microgasifier cookstove (ACS). The newly developed ACS stove has been tested with a Tamarind seed pellet as fuel. Results have been analyzed in terms of energy and exergy efficiency, emissions and economics (4E). The testing practice adopted for evaluation of the performance of the ACS stove is as per the standard protocol WBT 4.2.3. The energy efficiency of an advanced cookstove was found to be 35% and the exergy efficiency of 17.3%. Experiments have also been performed to provide data for investigation of the emission characteristics of the new stove. Eventually, the simple payback period has been determined as 2 months for four members of a family. © 2018 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Environ Prog, 37: 1901–1907, 2018

“…The resulting product is called briquettes and is easier to handle and has better combustion properties than the original biomass material. In Uganda, the available agricultural and forest residues could be used as raw material for briquetting [44,45]. In the proposed system, the briquettes are used for cooking in gasifier stoves that are more efficient than traditional stoves [45].…”

Appraising Bioenergy Alternatives in Uganda Using Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT)-Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and a Desirability Functions Approach

Poor access to clean and reliable energy technologies is a major challenge to most developing countries. The decision to introduce new technologies is often faced by low adoption rates or even public opposition. In addition, the data required for effective decision making is often inadequate or even lacking, thus constraining the planning process. In this study, a methodology for participatory appraisal of technologies, integrating desirability functions to the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT)-analytical hierarchy process (AHP) methodology was developed. Application of the methodology was illustrated with an example for participatory appraisal of four bioenergy technologies in Uganda. Results showed that the methodology is effective in evaluating stakeholder preferences for bioenergy technologies. It showed a high potential to be used to identify and rate factors that stakeholders take into consideration when selecting bioenergy systems. The method could be used as a tool for technology screening, or reaching consensus in a participatory setup in a transparent manner.
