Our Goals

Evaluate

Evaluate a mixture of sawdust and steer manure fuels in jiko stove.

Compare Results

Determine the fuels efficiency to boil water.

Analysis

Determine the amount of particulate matter produced when burning the fuels.

Final Design

Method used during experiment

Three different ratios of dry briquettes were analyzed which are: 70% steer manure - 30% sawdust, 75% steer manure - 25% sawdust and 80% steer manure - 20% sawdust and one pyrolyzed briquettes: 70% steer manure - 30% sawdust. The testing was done by measuring the numbers/m^3 of particulate matter 2.5 through particulate matter counter and measuring the temperature of the water and inside the stove by using thermocouple.
