Peter, Mike, David & Mark.

Thanks for your input. Regarding Acrolein that is claimed to be a low heat 
problem.
At what temprature would this be a non issue or a minemal problem? Can a 
slow pyrolysis
work with this material? A win-win is mentioned, so would on site power from 
Glyseral
be classed as a winner?

Thanks for answers recieved.
