See updated gasifier at: Gasifier Experimenters Kit(GEK)Fuel from Waste Biomass:Experiments in Pyrolysis, Gasificationand CombustionGasification is the general term used for processes where heat isused to tranform solid biomass into a "natural gas like" flammablefuel. Through gasification, we can take nearly any solid biomasswaste and convert it into a clean burning, carbon neutral, gaseousfuel. Whether starting with wood scraps or coffee grounds,municipal trash or junk tires, the end product is a flexible gaseousfuel you can burn in your gasoline engine, cooking stove, heatingfurnace and/or flamethrower. Apply a little additional effort andvarious liquid and solid fuels are possible too.Sound impossible?http://whatiamupto.com/gasification/index.html (1 of 4) [10/9/2008 08:16:55]
