This research paper details a large-scale study of 253 in-home emission tests in rural India, comparing rocket-style biomass stoves, forced draft gasifiers, and LPG stoves to analyze their impact on indoor air quality and the climate.

• The study conducted 253 in-home emission tests across three measurement campaigns per site to compare emissions from rocket-style biomass stoves, forced draft gasifiers, and liquified petroleum gas (LPG), noting that it is the first large-scale study specifically focusing on in-home emissions of LPG stoves.
• Solid fuel cookstoves are used by more than 3 billion people, causing household air pollution (HAP) that was linked to 59 million disability-adjusted life years and 1.6 million deaths in 2017.
• Cookstove emissions impact the climate through the release of methane and carbon dioxide, which are long-lived greenhouse gases.
