I've built a few of these for like camping out of an old aluminum soft drink can.  Or are you talking about something larger?  They run on denatured alcohol?

I have seen them used on 25-40 foot boats.   They run on the same alcohol as the stoves.  You might want to look in the marine or RV areas?

The term 'alcohol furnace' is a title mostly given to crafts used to keep coffee hot on tables.  You see these all the time at brunches and restaurants.  Some are fueled by small candles but their function remains the same.  Sturnos would also be considered a similar application.
