[Gasification] Insurance for small demo unit

[Rolf]

Dave,
I´ve been working since several natural disasters on a kind of "Emergency
Container" (trade mark) which contains in a unique way all elements
necessary to raise up some power and provide clean fresh water 15 minutes
after arrival. If you -or anybody on the list - are interested in co-
developping it, I have it quite advanced. We could offer the concept to any
interested NGO (or GO) to help us to bring it on the road.
I´M VERY SERIOUS ABOUT IT:
Rolf

Dave, where is the household?  There are plenty of homes here in the U.S. 
that would push a 10kW genererator to the limit.  If you don't try to air 
condition the entire house, don't cook on an electric stove, or heat water 
with electricity, you could power three or four households-- more, if you 
could coordinate the use of the refrigerator, freezers and other heavy users

of electricity.  On the other hand, what would hundreds of these small units

be able to do in a disaster area like Myanmar where there is wood fuel? 
Lights, water, refrigeration, communication... hope?

As for this demonstration unit, all we're trying to do is show that a very 
small sawmill (<1,000 bd ft / day) can power itself with its own wood waste 
and, perhaps, be a provider of electricity and charcoal.  I tend to think 
small... and simple.  Not in it for the money.  The idea is to get the unit 
out where people can actually see it work.
