Improving the thermal as well as emissions performance of biomass cookstoves has been of interest to researchers for a long time. Despite there being a vast literature on the subject, several...
The Black Carbon Finance Study Group report finds that existing funds are already in a position to finance businesses, activities, technologies, and policies that will contribute to cutting black...
This study by the International Gas Union (IGU) highlights the interconnection that exists between reducing greenhouse gas emissions and reducing emissions of other air pollutants. It presents...
To evaluate the effectiveness of the integrated control measures for reducing PM2.5 (aerosol particles with an aerodynamic diameter of less than 2.5 μm) and hazy weather, day- and...
Presentation on Cookstoves/Heatstoves given at the CCAC's Working Group in February 2015 in Kathmandu, Nepal....
Abstract - Wood combustion experiments were carried out to determine the effect of ignition technique, biomass load and cleavage, as well as secondary air supply, on carbon monoxide (CO), total...
Abstract – Summary: Air pollution from household biomass combustion is an important cause of poor health in developing countries. This study employs national-level longitudinal data for up...
Haze is a serious air pollution problem in China, especially in Beijing and surrounding areas, affecting visibility, public health and regional climate. In this study, the Weather Research and...
The purpose of this paper is to provide a source of information on thermal energy use in buildings, its drivers, and their past, present and future trends on a global and regional basis. Energy...
The opportunity to apply for carbon credits for cookstove projects creates a source of funding that can be leveraged to promote the “win-win” environmental and development benefits of...
