Innovation at its best: Samuchit ELFD Sampada Smokeless Stove

Innovation moves on... ! 

We have been refining our innovative ELFD (Electricity Less Forced Draft) Sampada Smokeless Stove to suit a larger spectrum of cooking needs. As a part of this, a cooking trial was carried out at Vishwadeep Pressparts Pvt Ltd, who are helping us with redesigning the pot holder of the stove. 


On August 22, 2015, we did a cooking trial, which was a rousing success! We cooked peas pulav with 10 kg rice and 2 kg peas. The total cooking time was just 45 min, and the total fuel consumed (a mix of wood pieces, wooden box waste, and coconut shells) was only 4.5 kg About 1 kg charcoal was still left in the stove, which would have allowed us a to do a few more things, if we had the time, energy and resources! 





Everyone at the factory that day including our team (about 50-60 people) lunched on the tasty pulav. A successful cooking trial, indeed! 

We are grateful to everyone at the factory for their co-operation and patience with us in the trials that we have been conducting there throughout August! 


 














This stove, designed for large kitchens or community cooking, has the following advantages:

  • ELFD : Electricity- Less Forced Draft
  • Does not require electricity for usage
  • Clean, smokeless burning of fuel
  • Fuel cost saving: 60-85% compared to unsubsidised LPG.
  • Uses wood, biomass briquettes, coconut shells, and any other woody biomass as fuel
  • Reduces harmful emissions
  • Can replace LPG where the supply is unreliable or unavailable

Samuchit's ELFD Smokeless Sampada Stove - a revolutionary smokeless stove


Samuchit presents world's first Electricity-Less Forced Draft Stove

A smart technology substitution for stoves that uses wood, biomass briquettes, coconut shells or any other woody biomass as fuel. Absolutely smokeless and clean burning of fuel.

Watch how it works

A two day exhibition on Modern Biomass Energy Technology was organized by Samuchit Enviro Tech (Pune), Electrofabrik and Phoenix Products (Belgaum) at Kannad Sahitya Bhavan on 10th and 11th April. The exhibition was inaugurated on 10 April at the hands of Mr. P.N. Dhond, Director, Lokmanya Multipurpose Co-op Soc Ltd Belgaum.  The function was presided over by Mr. C.V. Murkatnal, a hotelier from Belgaum who has been using smokeless stoves in his hotel kitchen for several years. 

From L to R: Mr. Sameer Kanbargi (Phoenix Products), Mr. C.V. Murkatnal, Mr. P.N. Dhond,
Dr. Priyadarshini Karve (Samuchit Enviro Tech), Mr. Sharad Walawalkar (Electrofabrik)

Demonstration of Samuchit ELFD Sampada Smokeless Stove

The exhibition showcased a number of technologies based on use of organic waste as fuels for cooking and other thermal process like heating bath water, etc., both at household and commercial scale. The main attraction was Samuchit Electricity Less Forced Draft (ELFD) Sampada Smokeless Stove useful for hotel, mess, etc. The ELFD technology is a first-of-its-kind invention of Electrofabrik and Samuchit Enviro Tech, and has been recognized by a Grant for Innovation Award from Nexus Carbon for Development, Singapore. 



The ELFD Sampada stove was operated continuously for 6-8 hrs on both days of the exhibition. Another week-long event was going on at the same venue, and a food stall owner in this event also tried out the stove. He was so happy with the performance that he requested that the stove be left with him till the end of his event! 

Check out the ELFD Sampada video demo and the food stall owner's trial at the above link.


If you know of any commercial or charitable kitchen that is using firewood or biomass briquettes as cooking fuel, do let them know about this revolutionary technology, which will save them money AND make their kitchen smokeless.
