A char-gasifier has charcoal as its initial raw fuel. <br>
<br>
And the resultant gases (called char-gas to distinguish it from
woodgas) are primarily CO and H2 and some methane. Very clean,
without the tars of pyrolytic gases.<br>
<br>
Disadvantage (historically) is that much energy in the wood (perhap
60 to 70%) was simply wasted or worse, became polluting smoke.<br>
<br>
But when the wood (biomass) can be pyrolyzed and the pyrolytic gases
can be meaningfully used (as in TLUD stoves), now the char was made
in environmentally favorable condition, without the wasted heat.<br>

The Kalle gasifier is a char-gasifier.<br>
Have you worked with char as fuel before in gasifiers?<br>
<br>
And where are you located (and send more info about yourself
and interests.)<br>
<br>
And who else besides myself, Gary Gilmore and Ken Boak have
active interests in char-gasifiers for CHP?<br>

Greetings to everyone and Happy New Year,<br>
<br>
I also was saddened to see the lack of activity on this
forum, but I am glad to see that there is indeed
continuing interest. I am in the process of building a
Kalle gasifier to supply a 3 cyclinder Yanmar diesel
engine, hoping to use sensors and microprocessors to
improve efficiency and reliability. Does anyone know of
any existing original Kalle gasifiers anywhere in the
world? Any ideas and advice is welcome.<br>
