Dear Mr Ticarat, We are now using a wood burning stove to heat our charcoal making process to avoid the use of fossil fuels and, when smoke is being produced simply use the stove with its glowing embers to burn it and thus utilise its energy. Regards, Thomas J Stubbing Cornel Ticarat wrote: > Dear list members, > > I plan to make a retort for producing charcoal. As may be you know, there is a great amount of pyrolysis gas resulting from the process. One can use this gas in order to get more heat that is needed in the process, adding it to the basic fuel used. Does anyone have an idea on the most efficient gas burner type for me to use?
