[Gasification] ORC's...

[Trevor Day]

So why can't an ORMAT type remote power unit be converted to be fired by an efficient biomass burner to create a nice little domestic power unit.  Fired by wood chips dried by the waste heat from the process such a unit would be suitable for application in individual residences or for district heating & power applications.

Are microscale CHP systems practical?

Driving a device like this with solar heat is, of course, very attractive but in northern climates we have more wood than sun.
