[Stoves] Pasifier Video

[Agua Das]

Could you be talking about the Dasifier?
Here is a link to the Dasifier in operation melting bronze with wood chips
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t08tj4NWUQY
The unit shown does not have char removal.
This configuration reduces wood cost from 25 lb wood per lb bronze
poured down to 1 to 3 lb wood per pound of bronze poured.
It has since been modified for char removal up to 25% char yield.
Yes it currently makes char very nicely.
We will soon do a char making steel pour without smoke release.
Stay tuned
