Welcome Ben,
Been followin' your work and research for quite some time now; it has been informative and inspiring. Living in the Saudi Arabia of biomass here in the PNW, have you considered storing power output from a gasifier-generator to a flow cell battery? The waste heat could be of course used on the farm to reduce input costs.
I recently bought a hydraulic splitter to split firewood and was wondering if there might be a way to better utilize hog fuel by compressing it into brickettes for home use. or better process firewood into appropriate blocks for gasification. Any ideas on streamlining fuel preparation for your gasifier? Any thoughts on the feasibility of common sense automation?
Best Regards,
