[Benjamin Domingo Bof]

Dear Tom, I´m searching about your analysis 
  of operating cost and feasybility about sawdust
  and other materials. Can you give me this site?
  Thank you in advance;
  Benjamin

How long is a piece of rope? :-)

Gasification is definitely economic in cases where fuel and labor costs 
are reasonable, and the cost of alternative end forms of energy are 
adequately high.

Gasifiers can be manually operated (cheap) or automated (expensive.) 
Alternative power can be cheap ($C.08 per kW grid connected in New 
Brunswick) to expensive (when based on imported diesel fuel costing 
about $2.50 per litre.

The specific answer to your question is site specific.

Best wishes,

Kevin
