Gasifier Experimenters Kit - Pole Shift Survival Information

Quadrafierquick and crude and without any specialized parts. While learning, I was alsocurious to see how absolutely simple and hammer and wrench fab tech thesecan be made with. Expensive McMasterCarr orders and complicated heatrecycling and embedded processor temp and mixture sensing/control will comelater.The result is the "Quadrafier Gasifier "V1.0: Updraftall updraft pictures are temporarily hereOn New Year's Eve 06/07, several friends and I built our first gasifier using anold 2x tank air compressor set. I was a bit stunned how easy it is to build andget basic gas, as well as how flexible it was on fuels (which I later learned wasonly the case with updraft designs). Of course this was tarry and wet gas, but itburned clean as nat gas on your stove. even running coal. clean coal is not amyth . . . ;-)The pictures at the link above show a short chemistry lesson on what ishappening to educate the locals. welding and plumbing. then coffee drying onthe wood stove, then filing the coffee grounds into the unit. set up of unit inyard. various lighting attempts, with success after awhile. then some poofs on acombined fuel of coffee and wood. then the hot tub and champagne rewardafterwards. (we were trying for midnight new years eve, but didn't actually get itfired until 1am.)http://whatiamupto.com/gasification/quadrafier/index.html (2 of 6) [10/9/2008 08:00:07]
