| Abstract |
The report gives results of measurements of airborne emissions, during typical operating conditions, from charcoal-making kilns commonly used in the developing world. The kilns tested were of five types: brick beehive, mud beehive, earth mound, rice husk mound, and single (oil) drum. Emission factors for the production of charcoal were determined for: (1) the direct greenhouse gases carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O); (2) the indirect greenhouse gases carbon monoxide (CO) and total non-methane hydrocarbons (TNMHCs); and (3) total suspended particulates (TSPs). Charcoal production efficiency (yield) and charcoal and fuelwood composition were determined as well. |
