Paul <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
have been receiving all the digester list emails – it is always good
reading.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
have a question – and not sure how to post it !!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>How
do you convert M3 of biogas produced to CO2 equivalents or Carbon Credits – is
it 1000 m3 = 1 tonne of CO2 equivalents ?? of 100 m3 of biogas to 1 tonne of
CO2 equivalents and we don’t have to be to precise, just general !!
<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>This
is why:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
have a project in PNG <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Were
I have installed one of my Digesters into a domestic house ( which I personal
financed with another PNG group/company) <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>This
system has been going for 3 months or so – and is constantly producing 10 m3
per month of burnable gas ( which is used for hoses hold cooking/lighting )
these house have electrical stoves and this electrical usage ( produced via
mineral diesel electrical energy production) is been replaced by biogas. Which
is about 330 or sol lts of gas per day and they use around 200lts per day for
all there cooking lighting requirements. So it is working well !!! it real cool
– much better than my New Zealand Digesters. Bloody New Zealand weather !!!!!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>I
have a JV company getting developed there and the JV company will be building
these system on mass into PNG – but I would like to get some carbon financing
and carbon credits for the energy that we have off set – in some regions we
will be offsetting electrical, LPG and wood burning for energy production.
I am a good micro digester technologist but not a good Carbon analysts
- who should we be talking to for the carbon side of things and how much
would it cost to get certification of the process to get carbon credits, and
who do we apply to get some carbon financing to assist in the rollout of these
systems. The more money the more system will get built.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
