Temporary Gassifier

E-mail Print PDF

Gentlemen,
          please review and re-distribute as widely as you think is
appropriate : this is a simplified downdraft gassifier that was designed
and tested back in the late 80's for use in an emergency if petroleum based
fuel was unavailable for essential activities such as agricultural food
production and emergency transport.

It should be noted : devices of this type will almost completely degrade
the nitrate content of the biomass that is used to fuel them. Anyone who
therefore proposes that these are a long term "solution" to peak oil should
stop and think carefully before they take this position. They are merely
an emergency stop gap. Nothing more.

The anti-Repco Rally protesters of the north coast are looking for your support. This weekend the Repco Car Rally is going to pass through national parks and the internationally recognised biodiversity hotspot of the Green Cauldron in North Eastern NSW.  Noisy, polluting, environmentally damaging cars are going to tear along the roads of some of the most beautiful parts of this state, containing endangered and vulnerable species,  during breeding time for many animals. As well as the cars there will be spectators and their vehicles, helicopters, media and extra police in the area.
