Pyrolysis Oil in ICE<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>Thank you all for your replies, well
that idea was short lived. Back to the idea of running on woodgas I
guess.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I didn't think the water content would be a problem, as it would
essentially be steam injection. But the other issues seem
insurmountable. </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Arnt even if the engine could run hotter with better materials, would
that not cause pre-ignition?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Just a further question re woodgas in engines. When calculating the size
of the gasifier with regards to engine output, is this done on the engines
output on conventional fuel, or its estimated output on woodgas?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Cheers</DIV>

class=gmail_quote>Dear Jason and all<BR><BR>We worked with fast pyrolysis
oil a good deal at NREL in the 1980s. Typical..yitco tans a good deal
of water which of course will distill over. However, it is full of free
radicals,and heating caused it to turn to a solid mess. I'm sure that
some volatiles could be collected, but not much.<BR><BR>Most of the work was
done by Jim Diebold, now at Community Power Corp.in Littleton.<BR><BR>Slow
pyrolysis of course produces a few % methanol, acetone, vanillin
etc.<BR><BR>Good luck,<BR><BR>Tom Reed<BR><BR>Dr Thomas B Reed<BR>President,
