Hello everyone, I enjoy reading all posts on
this list! I have been looking towards bio-oil lately and wondered if one of you
might have an idea as to how much more energy could be taken from gasification
of whole animal carcases such as bovines and swine than from converting the
melted fat into bio-oil for firing up a furnace or operating a diesel
engine. Is there such a project going on somewhere in your knowlwdge? Would the
extra BTUs gained from the bone, hair, skin and muscle tissue burning be worth
the extra effort? Sorry, it may sound morbid but at least Babe and Barney the
beef's mortal remains might just serve science one last time and even
heat and light our homes!
Greetings
