[Gasification] Connecting a gasifier to a micro CHP unit (Ian Gordon)

[Ferruccio Pittaluga]

Hi Ian,

in my knowledge, very interesting biomass-fueled gasifier/stirling-engine "combined plants" are developed and commercialised by SD in Denmark ("Stirling Danmark",  http://www.stirling.dk/).
The concept is being realised at a micro-power scale (below 100 kWel), but its potential is far higher.
Regards.
