Tom, You've kind of taken the wind out of my sails with your post because those are some of the questions that I was going to ask as part of my next post. I was also going to raise some questions about steam turbines and flash steam as an viable? alternative to gasification but now that seems to be being covered briefly but are there any more comments on steam? I append the other questions that I was going to ask. What are the advantages of running a diesel engine on gas if gas is to be the sole fuel (can it be?), I presume the engine will need to be converted to spark, so would it be better to use a petroleum engine? Is there a stage when a gas turbine becomes preferable to a reciprocating engine? What additional problems (if any) can one expect with a gas turbine and does the gas need to be pre-processed in any different way to gas for a reciprocating engine? Is it feasible to store producer gas?
