A schematic of a smokeless stove (inspired by Dick Strawbridge's Planet Mechanics' Heavy Metal House stove, and the Rocket Lorena stove). 2 methods of making the stove emissionless are possible, hence there are 2 schematics drawn.

  • A: fireplace door
  • B: ashtray
  • C: grating
  • D: fire
  • E: waterheating tank
  • F: (cold) water inlet
  • F1: (manual) valve (fosset)
  • F2: (manual) valve (fosset)
  • G: (hot) water outlet (ie to shower tank, ...)
  • H: (manual) waterpump
  • I: (removable), flat, top stove plate
  • J: flat top fasteners (fastens plate to lower section of stove)
  • K: flue
  • L1: heat exchanger (radiator)
  • L2: wet scrubber
  • L3: water inlet for wet scrubber
  • L4: dirty water outlet
  • M: gas pump
  • N: soil
  • O: smokepipe dislodges the smoke under the soil (method 1)
  • O: smokepipe dislodges in the air (method 2)

It should be noted that there is one major disadvantage: hot water can only be obtained when the stove is used (for cooking). Since cooking is done at noon/night (when people tend do have dinner, and not ie have a shower, ...) and since a stove is only used for a very short duration, this isn't a very suitable solution. Instead, a fireplace that also has a top that is heated (allowing to place pots on) seems a better solution.
