Bernie,

 

What is a "1-ton" plant? Is that 1 ton of biomass per day , i.e. 400 lb char
per day?

 

What size of charcoal processing system, in tons of waste wood/day, would be
suitable at a recycling yard like the ones you operate? 200 tpd?

 

Do you see charcoal products being produced at an operation like yours or in
a separate plant? 

 

Would you 

 

Thanks

Tom Miles

 

 

 

 

A demonstration 1-ton plant is about $60k, with their commercial and higher
capacity plants being far more expensive. A good current strategy might be
to encourage Waste Management authorities to put together
government/business/nonprofit/academic partners to set up demo plants with
associated research projects using the biochar and biofuel products created.
