I wanted to try to demonstrate just how bad even the ‘Eco’ wood fire burners are in terms of air pollution by comparing them to diesel trucks:
The idling emission figure of 4g/h I took from Impact of idling on fuel consumption and exhaust emissions and available idle-reduction technologies for diesel vehicles – A review – ScienceDirect . The Eco wood burner in lab conditions figure of 150 g/GJ I took from Where-theres-fire-theres-smoke_domestic-heating-study_2021.pdf and converted it to 5g/h assuming a medium sized 10kWh rated wood fire burner.
