Dear Alexis
Very interesting! Very comprehensive. As the system efficiency (raw fuel to delivered lighting) is about 10-12% is it possible that the fuel could be used (maybe steam?) to generate power by some other means? If you have a small, inefficient steam engine could you generate electricity at an efficiency of 15-20%? Regards Crispin +++++ Hi All, Alexis Belonio sent us a report on the recent community street lighting project in the Philippines. d They are working together with local businesses and have built a small scale gasifier powered by discarded rice hulls. More detail can be found in their report, posted on our site in pdf form http://stoves.bioenergylists.org/files/Small%20Scale%20Rice_Husk_Gasifier_Pl an_%20for_Community_Street_Lighting.pdf Erin Rasmussen TR Miles Technical Consultants Inc. and BioEnergy Discussion Lists [email protected]
