[Bioconversion] Flaming Pond Scum

[Jeff Davis]

Dear List,

Today  I was able to try out the pond scum (alga) fireballs in the Woodgas 
Stove.

- Hard to start.
- Burned slow.
- Stopped my stop watch after 25 min.
- Smoke from the get go.
- No smoke as the flame lowered. Seems to be the opposite from all other fuel 
that I have tried.
- all other fuels the flame clearly seemed to stop when only the charcoal was 
left. This stuff just keeps going but the flame gets smaller and smaller and 
smaller.

Until I can get the time to write an article for Tom M. with pictures and 
data; may the biomass be with you!

Jeff
