Turbo Stove - A New Cooker that Operates on Bioenergy

and sheet metal have not been able to solve the problems
related to the preparation of food by women under conditions
in the developing nations.

food and firewood. Amongst all the food shipments, tents, pots
and caildrons, there has been a distinct lack of cookers
incorporating bioenergetic and other agricultural waste materials
in their heating systems.
