Re: GAS-L: Market for small scale gasifiers & open burning regulations



Victor,

The discussion on "small scale gasifiers" has centered in the Stoves List 
Serve.  If you are not subscribed there, I suggest that you do so.

Much confusion on the meaning of "small scale".  Mine are "tiny" or 
"micro".  Gus Johansson's company in South Africa has a 6kwh unit that sell 
for about US$14,000 complete with IC motor to run generator.  And he has 
made others even smaller but focuses on 100 kwh and I think up to 300 kwh 
systems.  He is elderly and not on any List Serve, but can be contacted via 
me or via Tom Reed.

Would you please define what is "small scale" and what you would actually want.

Paul
