I agree that if an effective gasifier could be found and the gases be of
predictable quality that running IC engines or maybe even turbines from them
would be an option.
Using the IC engine pump might be the trick if the gasifier would work.
Gasifiers are not sufficiently reliable, are moderately expensive and
temperamental. If the aeration system fails millions of dollars worth of
shrimp die.
Maybe several decentralized units would be the safest way to go, but even
still the gasifiers are touchy. Direct combustion turbines would be more
likely to get my attention.
How reliable would the gasifier turbo be? Maybe the variable quality of the
gas would be less of an issue.
