Subject: Re: [Gasification] Gasification Digest, Vol 15, Issue 12

I'm interested in using a gasifier for some kind of heat to electricity
production straight from the boiler. Even if it is inefficient it occurs to
me that in an energy efficient building you could get a lot from it. From
what I have read you can get char for soil improvement as well as carbon
dioxide for algae production but generally the temperature inside should be
a maximum of 700 degrees. if I could get electricity generation from the
heat of the furnace to furnace to generator that would be something else.
I'm more interested in zero emissions and multi-purpose than efficiency
since I'm looking to get efficiency from the building construction itself.
Since I think conservation would act as a kind of multiplier for any
electricity I got. Would a tesla turbine be the way to go?
