This video is part 2 of my gasifier videos, for part 1 click here- • How to Make a Generato...
(This video is for Educational and Demonstration purposes only!)
This was a fun experiment, Its not perfect but its good for demonstration on the basics of gasifiers. The Air blower I added worked good and got it nice and hot, its mostly just needed in the beginning and once the gas production went up I was able to leave it off. The smoke that was passing through the bubble filters wasn't good for the engine but it still runs fine, ill make a better filter next time I use it.

I would take a step back or two with that lid screwed shut like that.....
Pressurised highly combustible gas in a closed container encased in naked flames.... jupp it's not a gasifier any more it's an I.E.D :p
Pls send abstract
So that capacitor is like a flywheel in essence right? So if you were to mount a flywheel on it then you don’t need that right?
Basically yeah, its just a way to store some extra energy for the starting load so yes technically you could use a heavier flywheel and that would be another way to store some extra energy :)
Experimental Fun its harmfull for our air....burning plastic isnt good...better to recycle the paper and plastic...all recyable...not burning...not solution!
students and engineers love him, neighbours hate him, haha
That's why its good that I live in the middle of nowhere, the neighbors are not close enough to care what I do :)

If your lid keeps popping off, you've got too much pressure in the line, likely due to having your line submerged too deep.
Instead of drilling a bunch of holes in the lid and losing half the gas, i'd suggest buying some five or ten pound iron weights, the sort meant to be used on a bench press bar. They're small enough to stack on top of eachother without getting in the way, and there's a convenient hole right in the middle which would allow your copper tube through. Five or so of those and you likely won't have issues with popping your lid anymore.
Also, try replacing your first flashback arrestor's water with vegetable oil, it'll likely catch more of the particulates as the bubbles rise through it.
To filter the gas even more using the oil, pinch the end of the line to create a nozzle and decrease the size of the bubbles.
The increased surface area will give more particles a chance to fall into the oil.
Also, for your second filter/arrestor, i'd try using water with ice in it.
The garbage you're burning likely has a lot of water vapor in it, but the gas will have cooled a lot as it passes through the tube and the oil, so if you pass it through icy cold water after that, some of that water vapor may condense out and not make it to the engine.
If you'd like to cool the gas even more, try running a coil of the tube through a two-liter bottle full of water before it reaches the oil.
Just cut the top off and seal the bottom hole with epoxy.
Just a note, the oil being used as an arrestor/filter will probably eventually turn into a sludge that can also be burned to cook more trash.
I'd love to see this small setup running more efficiently, and i think if you take a look at a channel called "oil burner" you'll find a number of methods of using the waste oil (and that blower) to cook more gas.
In the future i wouldn't bother using a blower on an open fire like that, as you're better off just punching holes in the bottom of the outer can to allow natural airflow through. Your fuel will burn cooler and last longer, and it won't be so rough on your setup, which i saw glowing red there.
And judging by the sound of that engine, i think it can produce more power than that, especially if it has more gas to work with.
Try adding a gearbox to get more speed out of the rig.
But the ice will melt.
Very good suggestions. I think in the real pilot or real system, they'll make it much more efficient.

Just water would also work, just less efficiently. You'd need another copper coil and two or three liter bottle for it, then.
Also a trap for the water being produced, with a valve for occasional drainage.
Well done.
Everytime I see your dog she/he reminds me of my old dog. Way more then any other German Shepherd I've seen.
Thanks
Proof of concept for the delorean time machine Mr. Fusion..
*HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH* but this isn't fusion.
But trash to fuel is in fact the concept..
@@doncox2146 fusion is matter straight to energy, and not fuel. And also fusion is fusing the matter together to release energy at a 30% matter to energy rate.

All your generator vids are amazing keep the great work up!
Yeah, you need a big flywheel on the motor and a much much bigger capacitor on the load to further stabilize the system.
0:15 the dog is so cute!
haha yes 🐕
Man, all your vids are epic to watch :) i like youre stuff continue like that !
I like the type of editing you are using :) Like the cardboards or aluminum when you are cutting them :)
Far from elegant. Just a dumpster fire. Love it!
Very good way to learn about gassifiers.
Wow great editing and great gasifier. Back in the day they used to power cars with a bigger version of this. Good job man!
Best wood gas video series I've seen
Make it run on a Food Scrap Methane Generator
4:02 When they ask "do you get our coupons in the mail?"
this is a good way to show people how to do things they will need to in a SHTF ,gun powder and lead melting making bullet's primers cross bows knifes and so on I like your channel keep up the good work .
Just came across your videos about a week ago. Hope you're doing all right and would love to see more videos in the future.
"MARTY, we don't need plutonium !!!!"
DUDE! I love this series of videos! Keep doing it and improving! This project have a LOT of potencial!
Please make more of this stuff! And i subscribet!
That's awesome! Great job. I didn't realize you could gasify trash.
Fun editing!
Minecraft Thật là tuyệt vời đấy tuyệt vời đấy rất là tuyệt vời
Hello @experimental fun. That is a great experimental set up. From that one we can see in small scale most of the equipments that there will be a real power plant . Congrats for your job. If it js possible please share the specification sheet for that IC engine. Thanks in advance
Simply brilliant! Thank you sir!
Cheers!
Keep hustling, big things incoming! 🚀
Dude, this channel is cool as fuck
I want more of these videos!
Could call it the noisiest smelliest hand torch in the world.I loved it.keep it up man keep them coming
x) love your editing ;-) cool stuff - awesome channel
That's a pretty trashy generator
*BA-DUM TISS*
i get it lol
Yup trashy there's 2 stroke gas in the vile ubove the water filter
corolla1995 That is two stroke oil. Idiot.
*HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA*
Should have had the airpump powered by the generator directly to act kinda like a turbo
DatChaffee C too hard to make that
it was powered by the generator when it was running but i had the blower off most the time while it was running
No I've built these things before they work.
During WWII all cars truck and busses here ran on woodgas
We call it Gengas in Sweden.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_gas
SHould have used a more efficient fan instead. Like a type of computer cooling fan. Just make sure that you use one that has sufficient air pressure. Some fans will not move much air against a pressure.
he uses a blower that is in fact better for the purpose your mentioned than a computer one :)
Very inspirational especially watching all the different types of fuel being used, something I really would like to see that ive never seen anyone use before is dried grass or weeds being used like this and also with a smokeless burner heating it, imagine how much dry grass there is out there next to the road its a waste
I like your filming style! You're also quite funny.
I find the whole video comical, if it's not one thing breaks / not working it's another but he perceivers and succeeds in the end :)
Appreciate it, Thank you! :)
cool its like Mr.Fusion from back to the future
YOU CAN'T CATCH THE RAT Yes that film is amasing
It's much like an italian car engine during the fascist regime.
Best effort....Amazing result❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love watching this shuff
Builds machine that runs on burning garbage, but builds the set and base of the project out of wood.
Why not? Wood is great
Safer
Could be recycled wood that was laying around
@FilooFox wood is flammable
@@randombird390 as long as the flame isnt spraying directly onto the wood it will be fine
damn i remember when i was little my dad used the same system for a car. I remember him taking me on a drive with it.
88 mph?
I've learned so much cool stuff from TH-cam that I'm pretty sure that I could survive an apocalypse lol
Ah, excellent my good man.
sir
I want to create the energy generation model . please give me the equipment list
If it was the end of the world you would saved me by writing the instructions on the unit
your creations are awesome
Fun video, liked and subscribed.
..... you could use a thermal generator while doing that and collect the fumes off the whole thing
thermal generators need alot more heat then that to be efficient
and you would need a constant suply of cooling
5:13 pum ...pum...pumm kkkkk😅
Ajaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas ajaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas ajaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas!!!!! La MAYOR LOCURA DE TH-cam!!! Gastastes más energia de la que generastes!! Y tanta gente mirando tu vídeo....gasto mucho más!!!! Muy buen Tutorial!!! big crazy inventor!!
This is the most useful thing in entire world
Question again me I am still to worried to run my engine on propane with the oil setup you have whats the lomgest you have runned it
It has a few hours run time with the oil setup I have, I don't really recommend doing it the same if you care about the engine, I got this engine for free so i'm not worried about it, it seems to work good enough for what i do with it.
Experimental Fun I got the engine for free too I actually got a couple I was just wanted to make sure I did not blow any of them but I'll give it a run is because I have acces to tons of propane but I wanna add a safety feature the when the oil goes below a level it shuts off the engine
you could also thin down the oil with a little gas so it gets into the engine better
Andreas Mathiassen it's a 2 stroke they dont have an oil filled crank like 4 strokes do heck they dont even have oil in the crank only a tiny bit bost of it is at the top of the piston that's why it does not get recycled most of the time it kind of burns off
Just use an old 4 stroke lawnmower motor or something if you're worried about oiling for the 2 stroke
That is that little engine that makes energy? Where can I buy one?
This is home made
You’d have to build most of the setup, but the Engine itself can be found in weed eaters, chainsaws, things like that.
@@bretsutherlandsterriblemem8439 fire
check biolite stove
You edited the video really good with the cut on the Coca-Cola trash
Awesome Experiment! Well done!
Couldnt you use larger diameter copper tube and larger mason jars for more efficiency?
Cooling of the gas is more important than the diameter of the pipe.
Hot gas is less dense, so if you cool it down you'll get more gas in a smaller space.
The particles are the problem they clog up the engine but you can easily just filter it through some sawdust.
Of and the more water in the fuel the more water in the gas and "Wet" gas is not as efficient but that can be remedied using an expansion tank where the water can precipitate out of the gas and collect at the bottom.
I love the smell of burning plastic in the morning. I also love the fact that our earth is in fire cause of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
Awesome project. Thank you for sharing
Y are number 1 y make me smile a lot thank y so much
É o delorean do de volta para o futuro, muito bom...
I don't speak this language, but i understand what it means lol
@@reboldrin i said i understand what you said
make something based on ecology next time ? add electrolysis to the mix ?
:) perhaps
What could it do with electrolysis ? He would be better off with an electrical motor.
electrolysis makes fuel to engine and its eco fine
But the energy released by the fuel is equal to the energy required to make the fuel and quite a bit of energy would be lost in form of heat and leaks. Electrolysis isn't an efficient way of powering a motor, unless you don't have an electrical motor (or not one powerful or efficient enough).
I dont know which power is needed for which kind of hho gas production. It could be tricky. In case of a car which can offer 350W instantly, it is perfect for cleaning the exhaust and make it about 95% cleaner. Would this mini engine run with 100 or 200 ? I would moslty love to find out ) It is possible to take as much ampers as you need from the generator by series of electrolysis chambers. (and dont forget to equalize the axis finally ))
Nice work keep it up!
Excellent job
Now make it run on used diapers haha😂😅🤣
Next up: How to Run a Generator on Poop!
Nice idea :D
Collect the methane escaping while the poop is fresh. Once dry use as a solid fuel. 100% organic renewable source of energy. Kinda stinks.
composting toilet and biodigestor
Perfect work !
I just started watching your channel and I must say>> super cool bro!
A++++
I love your dog to! He makes the video's so awsome!
If you could some nice metal music or banjo would be awsome!
Keep up the great work fellow TH-camr!
hey thanks, glad you like them, should have some more soon! :)
Now can you make a video *How To Restore The Ozone Layer Using Trash*
😂😂😂😂😂
Stirling engine to the rescue!
Inefficient but awesome!
Great work
Sweet so home version of a coal gasification plant, might try!
Am i understanding it correctly? The engine is running from fumes? Not gasoline?
Yes no gas
Wood fumes are explosive when heated without oxygen
No, WITH oxygen. Wood vapor will spark ignite in an oxygen mixture, just as gasoline will. Liquid gasoline will not, hence the carburetor to vaporize the gasoline and mix it with air on a normal engine like this.
One of the best Alternatives videos I've seen.... Ive been studying alternatives for 30 years.
superb video to teach others with. When the civilization crashes.... give it 4 years max... this is going to be a very useful piece of information. thank you!
Dude your funny! Awesome video thanks!
Nicely done.
the connection of engine and motor is unbalanced by the one ring screw you are using, add more of them IN a balanced position. or connect it by ducktape in case it will work :D
it will put less work to the engine
and almost cancel vibrations
I realized you have two ring screws, I remembered it as one, because you have both of them in the same position.Just turn one of them up and other down,(I mean the screw heads), it will make 50 to 80 % less vibrations. It will also make the engine to spin more easy.
line up the axles better? cus what you said sounds like a really long-winded way of saying to line up the axles better...
equalize screws or use ducktape
Who else is watching knowing they won’t do this 😂
yaya youre not supposed to make it
99.99 % people
Wtf lol I've already ordered the parts. This looks cool as hell
Dude this machines is amazing
Very impressive, a perfect energy source for doomsday survival.

Lovely air support :)
I really like the cutting cardboard effect!
haha Thanks! :)
Will it run on puppy’s?
Appithkia Yes, shit
Well if you consider them trash then yeah
Green Silver does IT run on evil Souls ?
Yes it will run on anything what can burn.
It will run on me
You waste more electricity then generate electric because of the blower
It does you a lot of electricity but it can run the bower and still make more electricity, It actually doesn't really need the blower I just added that so i can get it up to temperature faster and make it hotter if needed, this was all just an experiment for me anyway
Sammy Hussen you could probably find a way to replace the blower with one of those things blacksmiths used to get Coles hot enough you know that fan looking thing
Sammy Hussen
.
Experimental Fun should it is compulsory or we can use also gas stoves?
.f&
Pretty neat idea.
For a air filter you could cut the bottom off two 2 liter pop bottles and put a few coffee filters on with elastic bands and then press one over the other and tap them together. And then connect hoses acording. Large surface area for handling lots of smoke. Awesome videos btw you should try differnt types of garbage like plastic.
Was later killed for the making of the video
I bet not many people know what you are referring to
Will it work on grass? It's biological and there is a lot of it out there. If it would work it could be better for the future
JumpSneak Maybe dry grass then
So stroh
how about crabgrass since it pretty much thrives everywhere?
A wood gasifier takes wood chips, sawdust, charcoal, coal, rubber or similar materials as fuel and burns these incompletely in a fire box, producing wood gas, solid ash and soot, the latter of which have to be removed periodically from the gasifier.
Basically if it can be grown, it can be used..
You can make gasoline from gas, using clippings, manure and a microwave.
we need more!!! Diesel Experiment please
Nice idea ☺
Way too convoluted.
Burn the trash to run a steam engine.
Much more efficient by many factors.
simply way too more intelligent
You are a genius!
Works better than all you made after all of your videos about this.
Make one rund by my ex wifes
Man that was not eco friendly🤔😖
The fuel at least is carbon neutral so not that bad really. Better than burning natural gas, coal, oil and oil products.
It's about as eco friendly as a campfire.
While you have a long way to go, it is a good, solid start.
Good! I like it. I will try to do it
Wood gas was big in the great depression. Still it's impressive to see it still works lol
Make a downdraft gasifier now...cool video...good job
Wow that’s really cool👏🏻
Generator on trash?! Great recycling idea
