Hi Kevin,

Here are my answers to your questions...

1: What is the nature of the biomass resource(s) you propose to char? Wood
chops
2: What is your approximate intended "scale of operation?" Small farm scale
3: What is the presently intended "end use" for the char you wish to
produce?
for biochar field trials
4: Do you have a use for the energy in the pyrolysis gases? no immediate
use
5: Please confirm that you are indeed interested primarily interested in
charcoal production, OR if perhaps you are interested in gasification of
biomass (either wood or charcoal) for engine use. biochar production

All the best,
Lori
