We have a little Hunter multi fuel stove in the front room with what it calls an "air wash system" which draws air back down into the fire and keeps the glass a bit clearer by doing it. It works efficiently and hardly produces any smoke once the fire is established.

As pedrobedro says,.. the recirc isn't a new thing though.. i've seen this on old stove from the early 1900's.. Apparently there was a law bought in to stop the smog in london town, and that was on of the first things to change. A small box was added to the chimney which when the fire was running, pulled air from the chimney backinto the fire, pulling the smoke with it. Quite an effiecent design but never caught on.

Now used in most new coal/wood fires/heaters/stoves.

tone.
