Catalytic heaters are available commercially at camping equipment stores. They use propane for fuel which, when burned, gives off C02 and H20. They require some fresh air for safety and could cause moisture build up in a small setting, like a tent. These problems are alleviated by having some ventilation. The BTU's and burn times are listed for the various models... usually something like 5,000 to 10,000 BTU's with burn times of 6 to 8 hours on a regular canister. If you are looking for larger units, then there are heaters designed for contractors that put out much more heat and use BBQ type propane tanks.

I used a can with wick using 90% rubbing alcohol and the can was 1.5 inches tall and about 4 inches diameter and it ran for 2 hours if I'm remembering right. The longer it ran an I used a sheet metal floor heat duct boot with a 4 inch 90 degrees elbow on it with a thermometer hanging at mouth. Temp was 350 degrees for long time but I put 2 cans under the boot and temp was 450 degrees. I added an old computer fan that was 12 volt DC, an wired it with rocker on n off switch and a 9 volt square battery that turned the fan using it 8 hours per day the battery lasted over a week. The rubbing alcohol bottle lasted 2 an half days running 2 can in it. Well worth it to watch the safe emergency heat teaching grandson other ways of making heat. Plus him being 8 years old he loved using my tools to make it. I used heavy wood around left an right side and back of heat duct boot so it wasn't too heavy, that's very important to make sure it can not fall over. Tip if you get soot from burner since I use wicks. Means the wick is to long so cut it down some till it stops smoking.needs to be 1/4-3/8-1/5 inch depending on type of wick you are using. Many videos on here on making wicks during a emergency such as shoe strings and ropes.

As a pocket warmer this process works great and heats up the metal enclosure up to 60 degrees celsius for 12 hours just on fumes. But at larger scale you downgrade efficiency, flames are still visible and that means an ordinary burn is taking place. Keep away of these dangerous experiments. Buy an old Kerosine heater if necesary and use bio-ethanol of high grade.

If you want to store flammable fuel in your home and also keep filling this can up every hour at best. Also risk either kids or pets knocking it over. FORGET IT. I’m not saying it doesn’t work but when you add the wick, fuel, gauze it’s probably on par with much safer options. For a shed to take the chill off might be ok.
