• Kindling or 1st stage:
Inthisstage,thewoodisheatedtoatemperaturehigh
enoughtoevaporate themoisturewhichis presentin
allwood.Thewoodwillreachtheboilingpointofwa-

• 2nd stage:
Thesecondarystageiswhenthewoodgivesoffam-

• Final stage:
The nal stage of burning is the charcoal stage. This
