[Gasification] New Gasification Project

[Art Krenzel]

It gets even worse.  They plan to build their gasification plant in Lakeview, OR.  That area has what we in Western Oregon call a "shrub forest" compared to the density and size of the trees along the Pacific Coast.
They must have struck a pretty good financial deal to make them site their plant in a fairly challenging resource area.

    140,000 ton x 2000 lbs x 8000 Btu =
      2.24 10^24 Btu of wood

      12 million x 130000 Btu = 1.56 10^12 Btu of diesel

      

      1.56 / 2.24 = 69%  efficiency

      

      To get an idea of the amount of fiber:

      140,000 / 20 ton (triaxle truck) = 7000 loads per year

      7000 / 365 = 19 loads a day. Green wood would be more. Not
      counting the wood needed for the lumber.

      But those are baby log trucks compared to Michigan's trucks with
      pup trailers and 11 axles. No idea how much they can haul in
      Denver.
