In an effort to bolster sustainable cooking solutions, clean and renewable energy solutions company Ener-G-Africa on Thursday officially opened its new state-of-the-art biomass stove and cookware manufacturing factory in Paarl.
The two types are the Multi-Application Fuel Efficient Cooking System and the Forced Air Biomass stove, available as a single and double burner stove.Engineering NewsThe Mafecs can be provided with different fuel-containing ‘inserts’, namely for wood, charcoal, gas or biomass pellets. Due to an inadequate supply of pellets in South Africa, EGA is initially prioritising wood fuel, with the use of alien trees in mind.
The Fab stoves use eco-friendly biomass pellets as fuel and have solar panel-powered fans in their bases, which blow air through the base of the stove, providing them with very high energy efficiency and the ability to control the flame.EGA’s two pot ranges are the SIZL pot and the eCO2pot. both ranges include a 2-litre capacity pan and 4-litre, 6-litre and 8-litre pots with short handles.
The eCO2pots are basically SIZL pots fitted with an integral skirt, reported the publication. The skirt captures the hot air created by the cooking process and causes it to rise up the side of the pot, so the pot’s side becomes part of its heating surface. This increases energy efficiency and cuts the amount of fuel needed by about 25%.
