Re: MOBILE "Adam-retort" for charcoal production .... finally<br>
<br>
people are asking me since long, long for one.....<br>
Was
driving car recently on the highway, was thinking how to design <br>
something unique, something new?- and after some hours if thinking and <br>
driving, the concept was born.... It will be on the base of 2 oil drums,<br>
means about 400 litres of volume for biomass, char recovered should be <br>
~2/3, means ~266 litres of char or charcoal per day.... Smoke will be <br>
burnt plus heat recycled (this is new, existing ones just after-burn the<br>
smoke in the chimney; without using its heat for carbonization);
my<br>
mobile retort will be different. Will be light weight about ~150kg, <br>
low-cost about ~500€, can be pulled by a person, vehicle or a horse, <br>
donkey. Will start building a prototype mid 2013?. Am looking for<br>
a sponsor and/or a partner.....?cheers Chris, <br>

<tt><tt>So we are talking about mobile pyrolysis units, not
gasification?<br>
<br>
</tt>Just make sure the drums can be replaced every few weeks as
they won't last. I would be inclined to switch to custom built
drums, but keep the diameter the same so that the sealable lids
from 200 L drums can fit on them, and extend then to over a metre
in length and 2mm in thickness. This will increase production and
longevity of kiln. <br>
