KAUIL STOVE.
Design: An efficient stove for rural indigenous communities in Mexico. Made from locally available materials and processes, this low cost stove has the potential to combat deforestation and diminish the dangerous effects of indoor cooking fires. The Kauil (Mayan god of fire) stove not only reduces the fuel consumption for cooking, but creates boiled water for the household utilising the heat generated. This self-sufficient design runs on, and produces, its own clean burning fuel yielded from agricultural waste (predominantly maize).
