I have a set of ceramic logs that use alcohol fuel --- the logs stack up around, and conceal, a rack, where you put the cans of alcohol gel fuel, so the flames come up between the logs for a realistic looking wood fire without the mess. I saved a set of the cans from my last case of commercial fuel after finding a forumla for making my own (that is much less expensive). The commercial cans have lids I can use to snuff the flame, but love the idea of using the bean tins. The logs took the place of the grate in my wood burning fireplace, look wonderful, and I don't have to fully open the damper, sending all the heat up the chimney! I am now inspired to buy one of those little stoves for using as heat in my garage this winter when I want to do some wood crafting, plant potting, etc. Thanks for the inspiration!

This liquid fuel is excellent for retrofitting the older box stoves into something with clean output. It is ideal for use in stone wall basements and well houses to keep temperatures above freezing, as well as other areas that need dry heat warming in the depth of winter. The liquid fuel simplicity would be ideal for a medium sized DIY drum heater. We use ComfortBilt Pellet heaters with screened white oak pellets that are carbon neutral & negative when screened and now burning at 94% efficiency. Also the optimized Monarch wood air furnace with input vent modification and damper output tweaking and the wood pre heated upon it will burn with the interior of the firebox white as plaster dust.! That makes the renewable aspects of these hardwoods carbon neutral or even negative, since the energy is completely retrieved from the material with only smokeless clear air in the exhaust in a manner that's far less intrusive than natural decomposition.
@justinw1765 Жыл бұрын
Unless these liquid fuel heaters are vented outside, they aren't actually that dry. One of the combustion byproducts is water vapor (and a decent amount). This is fine if your place is pretty dry in the winter (natural humidifier), but not so much if it is not. And like any burner that is not getting some intake air from outside via a chimney or what not, it will reduce the oxygen in your living space noticeably if you're burning it often and larger amounts. Thankfully, when it is burning blue, it is at least not releasing CO (or very tiny amounts). But get oxygen low enough, and it doesn't matter too much if there is CO being produced or not, because unless you're very well adapted to low oxygen environments, it can cause some definite health issues and bodily side effects.

I was just going to mention all the water vapor that adds humidity into the house from burning alcohol not to mention the CO poisoning in my new doses. Carbon monoxide poisoning is a cumulative in small doses that do not leave your body rapidly. They do damage to the red blood cells in on daily exposure accumulate to become a lot of damage. Majority of cheap approved CO monitors work on a time, weighted average that allows you to receive small doses of CO poisoning that they consider OK until it gets to a level that exceeds a certain percentage parts per million before the alarm will go off But if you turn off the heater that time allotted. It resets the alarm back to zero and notifies the occupant that they have been exposed to carbon monoxide. So the next time they fired up, they get another exposure level as their body, red, hemoglobin, red blood cells, absorbs carbon monoxide, and it kills those cells that do not recover Under no circumstances should stove, no matter how clean looking the burning is and how clean smelling because your nose cannot smell carbon monoxide And the high water content from the oxygen, combining with the alcohol burning in the air in some localities, will put so much humidity into the building. It will cause mold to start developing in the house, depending where they live. .

Unless you are making your own bulk alcohol out of cheap biomass materials...alcohol as fuel is on the expensive side, especially so when you factor in the amount of BTU's per mass and volume. I do like how it burns fairly clean with the right conditions, which aren't hard to make/design. Ultimately, the "best" fuel is the cheapest fuel. Wood/biomass burning has come a long way, and there are now fairly to quite efficient systems out there. I realize that it is a real PITA and expensive to set up in the UK (and some areas in the EU), but in the US, it tends to be much less so. I have a traditional wood stove on our property. I've been thinking of ways to make it more efficient such as insulating the stove/combustion chamber better. The flue/chimney is not as long (within the inside of the house) as I would like, so a lot of heat gets wasted going up through it. I've thought of cutting holes in it and putting copper pipes through them and blowing a fan through them. We have a moderate sized hot tub only about 8 or 9 feet away from the stove, and I've though about using the water in there as a heat battery. Wrap copper tubing around the chimney and pump (probably passively) the water through it. Also have thought about putting a large, somewhat parabola shaped IR reflector behind the stove and directing it towards the doorway that the heat needs to go through (unfortunately, the wood stove is in a "sun room" [ironically named] which is directly on the ground on concrete about 4 to 5 feet lower than the rest of the house, and that is unheated. There is a door that opens up to it from the main house, and a window in a bedroom that opens up to it. Not the most efficient place for it, especially with all the 22 or so feet of large sliding glass doors. But it was the easiest place to put it, especially since our place isn't that large, and it would have been mighty awkward and too hot if put in our living room. (Gawd, how I wish our property didn't have so many trees, and I could build Solar heat collectors instead, with some Solar panels directly hooked up to nichrome wire in a very well insulated heat battery [for nighttime heating]).

Whole families froze to death in their cars as they sought out what little heat they could toward the end. Elders were found dead in their homes. It's such an outrageous, senseless tragedy. I watched people putting out video after video trying to teach people who were caught in this death trap how to survive. I do believe it helped some, but not enough. I was raised in winter country and I know how to survive in the winter. Now I'm retired in Arizona and I STILL have the means to survive a blizzard at hand. I've got the knowledge, the tools, and the materials handy to get through a freak blizzard because they do happen here. Granted it's only about once every hundred years, but it happens. There's no one foolproof system. It doesn't exist. But people aren't accustomed to preparation. Kids should be taught survival skills in school so that they aren't blindsided by nature when it matters most.

One thing that would increase the heat output would be having a tube go thru each side that sits right over the flame. The ends of that tube have a 90 degree elbow pointing down to the ground and one pointed up. By doing this you would be heating the air and creating a simple air convection to speed up heating considerably and still get that radiant heat once the whole thing warms up. Seen it with something that burns oil so you wouldnt be venting the exhaust to the room.

Here in New Mexico, lots of us use wood burning stoves. We use it for our primary source of heat. I get the fuel for free cutting out the dead wood from our 20 acres of woodland. Since we have so little moisture, the dead wood takes decades to decay, so by taking out the wood, I help prevent wildfires. BUT... One thing they may not tell you about wood stoves is they are dirty! Pieces of bark fall off when you bring wood in and so you have to sweep. Then, and worse, you get ash finer than the finest flour floating in the air when you clean the stove out. We love wood heat, the ambience, the sound the stove makes as it heats up, but we don't particularly like the dust. If we had kids I'd worry about the long term health effects. Just some things to consider. The alcohol stove looks like a great idea!

Our wood stove is in our concrete floor sun room, which is lower than the rest of the house and only connected to it by a door. This helps with the dust and clean up issues some, but also makes it less efficient for heating the house. The more efficient and clean burning the wood stove, the less ash it makes. People with very well designed rocket mass heaters for example, tend to experience very minimal amounts of ash. (Also not using paper as a starter really helps. Using cotton or liquid fuel helps to reduce ash).

Didn't find anything yet but carbon and ceramic seem to be good options, as you've already tested. That aside, have you considered or tried out burning iron powder yet?

When you get a primarily blue flame, very little CO will be produced. But you still have to be careful of the accumulated amounts over periods of time. If your burner burns very blue, and you only use it once in a while (say to relieve the main heating system of some stress on very cold days or the like), then it should be *relatively* ok. But you definitely don't want to be using it consistently and for longer periods at a time, even with a blue flame. Problem is, is that common sense is not so common, and there is a percentage of people out there who are either too stubborn, not bright enough, and/or too knowledge deficient, who will misuse these or other burners. Ideally, Rob (and any other folks) would be least venting these out through a window insert. Besides very small amounts of CO, these also produce a lot of water vapor, and will really humidify a living space. This can be good if you live in a place with very, very dry winters, but not so much if you live in places like the mid to south East Coast, western WA and OR, the deep south, etc. The places are often moderately to moderately lowish humid even in the deepest and coldest part of winter, minus the occasional very cold days because of polar vortexes etc.
