Optimizing Heat Flow for Sustainable Smoking: Dual-Heating System to Reduce Mangrove Consumption and Control PAH Contamination

Abstract— Mangrove overharvesting for firewood threatens the Irrawaddy dolphins’ habitat. Recently, automated smoking machines have been proven to reduce mangrove consumption. However, they are not user-friendly. Therefore, we proposed a modular smoking machine with dual heating sources based on pra...
