a beautiful flame! Congratulations! It would be nice if you can provide some efficiency calculations (fuel weight to BTUs-out ratio), although I know that it is sometimes hard to do in such diy designs, but it will be quite a good start and help for some of the others diy makers, if interested to go in your footsteps.
That's the plan for sure but first I need to fix the bugs so it can run continuously like a frame on wheels en en air tight lit , I wil provide the efficiency calculation in the future , best i can do is provide the wood type, moisture content en the electric en hot water output
Ive seen your gasiffier ots really impressive. Very good gas quality. Do you mean the hight of the reduction zone ore the whole gasiffier so the producer gas is heating the fuel?
good morning. I'm thinking about doing something similar to then charge the electric vehicle. with garden waste. Would it be possible for the engine's exhaust gases to go directly to the material's combustion chamber? How is it with the EGR valves? the final gas before entering the engine passed through a radiator to lower its temperature
Sounds like a excellent way to get around hybrid vehicles ar the future for sure 😃, im pretty sure it could be done whit low energy garden waste as this type of gasifier adds energy to the wet fuel in a form of heat, you can't do it directly whit exhaust gasses you need a jacket en a steam heater for recirculation
@@oscarverwey I understand your point of view. Re-introducing these exhaust gases back into the wood burning zone helps the environment. thus burning as much harmful gases as possible
@@brunodias367 its more to indirectly make superheated steam so the fuel gets reformed whit h o radicals, this makes Les soot en tar at a lower temperature (+-400) Deg c if you can do this you can just add a little air in the combuster to get it up to 850/950 Deg c en creack the tar en reduce the char whit the left over steam
Oscar, you are doing really great work! There are so many genius details to your designs. How is the wet electrostatic precipitator going now? I'm so glad to find your channel. Please keep up the great work 😊
I appreciate your kind words, I'm doing my best, about the wet electrostatic precipitator I stoped using it although it works like a sunshine, the problem is the water get dirty en then you have to throw it away somewhere en this is unacceptable in this amounts , the goal is to use a ecological friendly dry system where the problems not getting bigger by adding water (think about wet en dry toilet systems), for the straightefeid gasifier the tar is so low that the dry electric filter can run for around 8 hours whitout any intervention en as it has a insert pipe now which can be replaced ore cleaned easy by a cloth ore by the flair in 1 or 2 min after stopping the gasifier because ther is stil some temperature en natural solvents in the tar so it can be wiped of easy , for the multi stage gasifier in one of the next videos I'm gonna show a dry 7 pipe dry electric filter whit moisturised air cooler, i believe it could run for day's en day's as ther is no tar anymore only some water condensation en dust this wil flow down so stay tuned, greetings
Thanks Oscar,I'll try to replicate it since I'm charcoaling rice husk at low temperature and hopefully the tar is a useful by product, for example preserving bamboo (I'm in Japan) We have a lot of both.
@@michaelgardner1681 that sounds amazing Great to hear your into gasification aswell en you likey design so much you would like to replicate it , I would appreciate it if you would mention my channel if you decide to make a video about it ;) I wonder do you produce charcoal as a product? As for tar condensation to make a liquid product I recommend that the gas is going up en out after the screw feeder in a water cooled condenser, the left over gas en tar can be burned in a annual combuster to make hot water en keep the process going 24/7 by the use of exhaust gas temperature of 400 to 500 deg c . for clean gasification it's Al about doing the pyrolisis at the lowest temperature posible en given a decent amount of time (15 to 30min inside the screw feeder) so ther is only primary tar en high quality charcoal is produced (primary tar its the smallest version of tar bond en most easy to crack)you already doing that if I understand that correctly, one can get good results whit only putting the heat of the producer gas in through the screw feeder shell make sure the diameter is not much bigger than 76mm for a good volume to area ratio,I'm the end I decided to go al the way for max efficiency for electricity production
Thankyou Oscar for your generous and helpful reply. You have inspired me to start producing content! I shall gladly mention your channel and important breakthroughs, anything I can do to support your efforts in keeping it blue! Best wishes, Michael If possible please share the details of your precipitator, I don't want to die trying just yet😅
@michaelgardner1681 i would highly appreciate that, about the dry singel stage electrostatic precipitator i wil make a other video about it en what makes it run so well, for now what i can say is *cool the gas in a radiator *Use a reflection mist eliminator *Let the gas run through a bucket of charcoal (this can be reused by drying it en after 50hours throw it back in the gasifier as it wil make more ) *The pvc parts of the electric filter consist of 2x 110mm cap 2x 110mm T peace 2x110mm female coppeler 2x reduction 110mm to 76mm 2x reduction 110mm to 40mm en 1x pipe 76mm x 600mm *The positive electrode is a 64x610mm steel pipe whit 1.5 mm wall *the negative electrode i use a stainless steel m8 Treated rot whit star washers every 70mm or so en some plastic Pipe, washers en silicone seal for electric isolation on the top, I found that a 10kv air purifier power supply whit a small 90v neo indicator light in series is sufficient to do the job en can filter gas up to 4kw electric output whit a acceptable efficiency , I will make a video about it soon so stay tuned, greetings
Nice blue flame
Again better! You keep developing. Bravo. Enough wood chips here
👍👍👍
wow that's a beautiful flame!!!

Watch my unique design zero tar formation just achieved by increasing height

@michaelgardner1681 i would highly appreciate that, about the dry singel stage electrostatic precipitator i wil make a other video about it en what makes it run so well, for now what i can say is
*cool the gas in a radiator
*Use a reflection mist eliminator
*Let the gas run through a bucket of charcoal (this can be reused by drying it en after 50hours throw it back in the gasifier as it wil make more )
*The pvc parts of the electric filter consist of 2x 110mm cap 2x 110mm T peace 2x110mm female coppeler 2x reduction 110mm to 76mm 2x reduction 110mm to 40mm en 1x pipe 76mm x 600mm
*The positive electrode is a 64x610mm steel pipe whit 1.5 mm wall
*the negative electrode i use a stainless steel m8 Treated rot whit star washers every 70mm or so en some plastic Pipe, washers en silicone seal for electric isolation on the top, I found that a 10kv air purifier power supply whit a small 90v neo indicator light in series is sufficient to do the job en can filter gas up to 4kw electric output whit a acceptable efficiency , I will make a video about it soon so stay tuned, greetings

You need a cameraman to get the totality of the view of your actions.
Good point! Next time I'm Wil use something to hold the camera thanks for the reply
