GAS-L: Re: [wastewatts] Cyclone Wood Gasifier



 Ken,
    Sounds like your on to something here with the centrifugal grinding and 
separation of charcoal fines.  Even I could use a good line drawing sketch on 
this one.  I'm sure everyone else would appreciate.  Can you just sketch one 
up, and scan and paste to E-mail? 
      We need to use a variation of that same technology, to make a charcoal 
powered turbo jet engine.  One that uses fuel cartridges that we both agree 
are the way to go, with powdered charcoal (see earlier Sept. E-mails on 
gasification and wastewatts). 
     Maybe the cartridges could act in gasifier "fuel tanks" and the gas go 
to somewhat more conventional type turbojet engines, modified to the task.  
Some pressure from the gasifier would be part of the final thrust.  This 
because almost half of the energy is released gasifing the charcoal.  
    I'm kicking this out to the gasification people, because their are some 
real Biomass wizards there.  I think they all fell asleep.  They can look up 
the first part of this post on wastewatts.  Maybe they are interested in 
Babbington burners, for biooils too?
