brazier
thumb|Mangal (barbecue)|mangal A brazier () is a container used to burn charcoal or other solid fuel for cooking, heating, or rituals. It often takes the form of a metal box or bowl with feet, but in some places it is made of terracotta. Its elevation helps circulate air, feeding oxygen to the fire. Braziers have been used since ancient times; the Nimrud brazier dates to at least 824 BC.

recuperator
thumb|400px|Types of recuperator, or cross plate heat exchanger A recuperator is a counter-flow energy recovery heat exchanger that recovers waste heat in the supply and exhaust air streams of an air-handling system or in the exhaust gases of an industrial process. Generally, they extract heat from the exhaust and use it to preheat air entering the combustion system, reducing the need for fuel and boosting the system's energy efficiency.
