Abstract

The present invention relates to a system used for efficiently burning biomass fuel. A
device used within the system has a body dimensioned to accommodate an area of combustion. The body defines apertures therein positioned in the body for transfer of combustible or combusted gasses and securement devices. The body dimensions allow for movement of bodies about one another for conforming to a predetermined arrangement within the system and to fit within the constraints of an area used for combustion of fuels either in residential or industrial settings.
