Stove called Chulha. She came up with guys from the design department by Philips for the Third World in the first place - to India. Children toiled stupidity ... uh ... I mean, tormented understandable and familiar to any decent person desire to make the world better. But around them, and so it was all good ...





Then they hired sociologists and statisticians, to those described in detail who and why in the world is bad. In one of the reports submitted to them it was about rural India. Allegedly, because of the tradition of lighting a fire for cooking directly in the hut every year ugorayu death some persons just terrible. And of the few wise men, who hit upon the idea to make a chimney, half killed, falling from the roof when the chimney climbs to the judges this very clean. Dudes from Philips shed a few tears, and decided to develop for Indian villagers safe stove. And develop. The stove was a very simple, compact, and gives enough heat to warm up the culinary hell staunch stand on two holes saucepan and a frying pan.

Producing environmental rural stove Philips at its facilities like as not going to. Instead, the design was invented so simple that (in any case, it is assumed to be so) any small artisan in some Bangladesh or Nigeria (well, not only the same in India, people in hovels ugorayu) will be able to look at the edge of an experienced eye to shemku go to the nearest ravine gain there of clay and start churning out thousands of these stoves, and then selling them for a neighbor exotic non-European small penny.

That is the same scheme:



Hot air before it reaches the chimney must go through the stack of removable mud filter-grids, leaving them most of the carbon and preventing the clogging of the pipes. If users will show the wonders of ingenuity and managed to still clog the chimney, climb onto the roof still do not have anybody. Why is that? Because stove chimney Chulhu provides audit, ie removable side cover in the middle of the tube - only my reach.
