Under the sponsorship of the International Committee of Red Cross (ICRC), CRT/N conducted a technical study of improved smokeless stoves installed in the ICRC premises. ICRC has been involved in promotion of improved smokeless stoves in jails of Nepal. Four different designs of mud stoves were tested. Technical testing of the stoves like efficiency, fuel consumption, heat losses and indoor air pollution were performed.
