Disclosed is a fireplace which includes a firebase, a primary combustion zone with a first air supply unit, a secondary combustion zone, and an exhaust flue. The fireplace place also includes a charcoal/reduction layer which forms between the primary combustion zone and the secondary combustion zone, the arrangement and construction being such that the gases and/or particulate matter produced from the pyrolysis and/or combustion of the biomass fuel in the primary combustion zone have to pass over, or through, the charcoal/reduction layer prior to entering the secondary combustion zone and/or the exhaust flue. The fireplace also includes a second air supply unit for introducing heated secondary air into, or adjacent to, the secondary combustion zone, the arrangement and construction being such that the secondary air passes through (or adjacent to the region of) the charcoal/reduction layer to thus heat the secondary air. |
