     If there is an easy way to use gasificaion it's
for refridgeration! What you need is an ammonia
refridgerator that the body has rotted out. Take the
working parts out and build a top loading box with 4
to 6 inches of foam on the sides, 6" on the bottom and
1" on the top. Put the ammonia reefer parts to it and
use producer gas, DD or other waste fuel gas such as
the gas from making charcoal to fire it. Or use
circlating hot oil from a fire to run it.
    Unless you open it a lot or put in a lot of stuff
to cool down 1 or 2 hr a day of running time should do
the trick.        
    Doesn't avocados have a lot of oil? Could you make
biodiesel from them?
