Wood-burning stoves in buildings
Wood-burning stoves through the ages Old english: Stofa = enclosed space = ”stoved in”
Goudsblom J (2001) Fire, human use and consequences, Fine Arts, 2001
Wrangham R. (2010) Catching the fire: how cooking made us human
1 million years ago
Lightning: ”centre of activity”
300.000 years ago
Cooking: ”Centre of humans”
200 years ago
”focus” ~ home
Steel exhaust
Tightness
5 years ago
Global world ”energy”
Insulation Design
Controlled venting
ADVANCE Control of house and stoves
IMPROVEMENT Control of fire in stoves
TRADITION Domestication of fire on the ground
More than any time in the human history!
(Still) Popular traditional WBSs
Women cooking and heating in Hymalayas
3-stove fire, Inhabitat, 2014 Recreational heat in Europe
Open fire, 2014
Wood smoke, exposure and impacts
• Mix of toxic substances including CO, TVOCs and
• Aerosols include climate forcing black carbon
• PM2.5 is the best single indicator for exposure associated to: Child pneumonia
Low birth weight
Chronic pulmunary disease (COPD)
Lung cancer
Cardiovascular disease
Others
Largest impact on the mortality
In cold areas, heating requires
more fuel than cooking during
the cold days!
Industry Land traffic Residential
Residential wood heating is a
major source in China and
Europe
Biomass burning Power generation Agriculture Nature
Household air pollution: outdoor/indoor smoke
