[Stoves] The PROTOS Plant Oil Cooker

[Peter Singfield]

In the present example -- waste Papaya -- hope to be able to operate the
electric deep well pumps that do the irrigation of the Papaya. A huge
energy factor -- and replacing that fossil fuel need with a biomass waste
product -- why -- that might even meet a "Greens" approval.

But they probably would condemn it anyway -- just as a matter of principle!

The things is -- if we all did all our tiny parts in real time -- it could
make a real difference.

A few gallons of diesel saved here -- a few there -- it all adds up.

The waste papaya to bio methane to power for irrigation should work -- as
the machine operated by two hours -- twice per day. So properly sizing the
digester should result in just enough. Without going over board in capital
costs.

Course -- if every papaya operation in the world did this same -- it would
be a lot of portable fossil fuel saved.

One would think -- under our free enterprise capitalist system this would
be soon researched and implemented.

But us few foot soldiers on the real front lines know a lot better!!

Of course this can only advance as fast as this one soldier can implement
the process.

So much to do -- so much to get done -- and so terribly few really do
anything productive.

Reg -- they doing Papaya in Vietnam or Columbia??

Maybe we should get together on this??

AD -- India??
