Mutagenicity- and Pollutant-Emission Factors of Solid-Fuel Cookstoves: Comparison to Other Combustion Sources
Conclusions: Both mutagenicity- and pollutant-emission factors may be informative for characterizing cookstove performance. However, mutagenicity-emission factors may be especially useful for characterizing potential health effects, and should be evaluated in relation to health outcomes in future research. A FDS operated as intended by the manufacturer is safer than a TSF, but without adequate ventilation, it still results in poor indoor air quality.
