REDI simple multi-fuel burners
These burners work without pressure tank, air pump or wicks. Fuel (paraffin, aviation kerosene or diesel oils) enters the burner under gravitation and burns after gazification. The power is regulated by the height of the fuel container. A simple construction makes production possible in developing countries at minimal cost. The model presented here delivers 10 kW for a large family or community, a smaller model delivers 2 kW.
REDI has developed recently a new model of burner. This last model, still under development, pushes simplicity and easiness of manufacture to new limits. It is pictured herunder.
These burners could greatly help in diminishing the deforestation process occuring in such places as Haiti or the african sahel region, replacing wasteful (and potentially unhealthy) charcoal braziers by cheap and efficient burners, using readily available fuels and locally manufactured.
