Hi All,
   Great post on producer gas genorators.   
   What about producing gas from heating wood to 600
to 1400 degrees F ( pyrolysis) without burning with
air? Is there any info on gas output, temps nessary
and it's effect on gas output? They use it in industry
to make coke from coal and charcoal from wood. It
makes a hi grade/ hi btu gas that burns clean with
little filtering that's simular to natural gas.
    I have a good deal of info on doing this with coal
but haven't found much on wood. It looks like the
output will mostly be 50% methane, 30% hy, some
methanol,co2, ethane and co.
     BTW a good way to get rid of co2 is bubble it
through cool water at pressure, 200 lbs +?, and it
liquidfies into the water. If you're storing the gas
under pressure anyway this will help you get more gas
into a given tank for producer gas. It cools and
cleans the gas too.
       Thanks for your help, jerry dycus
