Hey Nicolaus! 

Good to see you in this forum! I hope you still know me from the Jatropha
seminar last year? This type of blower and equipment, does it look like this
(see attached picture) Do you know the suppliers of the equipment you
described so I can contact them for the corn (maiz) dryer?


There is something else I want to share with you: I have been studying
tropical pasture (cutting 9 times a year with a production of 30 tonm /ha
/yr and with chipping it and feeding (after pretreatment) in a plugflow
reactor to make biogas for electricity and cooking. I consider it to be of
all systems, most continuous (you produce as of the first year), most simple
in growing (perfect nutrients recycling) and in conversion (biogas run
engines like Jenbacher are top) and most yielding per ha basis. Of course
other systems like KDV (the promise) or cellulosic ethanol are nice but seem
to be more large scale. 

What's your idea on it?

PS are you familiar with Suarez's efforts
