Wood Gasification…Electricity, Heat…CAR FUEL? – Harvest Power

This awesome Volvo has been adapted by a fellow named Dutch John.  Believe it or not, but if one were to load up that silver apparatus on the back with burning wood chips, this car could run for 60 miles off the fumes.  That’s about the range for an electric car that you’d buy off a lot nowadays.

Wood gasification sounds like a fancy technique, but this process has been used to create fuel since before WWII–people get creative during dire energy shortages.  The chips in the tank are burned up to about 2500 degrees Fahrenheit…so we don’t recommend you install it beneath the seat.

Of course, this isn’t a green replacement for oil–cutting down trees for wood chips to power the billions of motorists around the planet doesn’t make a lot of sense.  But it’s a great real world example of how wood gasification works. One drawback of anaerobic digestion is that wood-based solids don’t go through the same biological reactions to bacteria as do, say, banana peels.  So wood gasification is an alternative method for us to ensure that  wood-based solids don’t end up cluttering our landfills.

If you’re really curious, check out this video on You Tube from the National Geographic show “Planet Mechanics.”  The intro discusses how to make a wood gas generator that could…theoretically…power your car.  We’re not suggesting you try this at home.

Planet Mechanics–Forget Horsepower, We’re Talking Tree Power

Harvest Power employs evolutionary gasification technology to convert wood waste and other feedstocks into renewable syngas ideal for producing electricity, heat, and substitute natural gas.  Find out more about why it’s an economically viable, affordable, and reasonable option here.

‘Manufactured’ Masculinity: Making Imperial Manliness, Morality and Militarism $165 ‘Manufactured’ Masculinity should be considered essential reading for scholars in the humanities and social sciences at every level and in all parts of the academic world. It weaves together brilliantly the elements of the ‘manufacture’ of masculinity in the period world-famous ‘public’ school system for the privileged which serviced the largest empire, the world has ever known, at the zenith of its control and which has had a significant influence in the formation of the modern world. This authoritative study of the making of British imperial masculinity shines light on the period of Muscular Christianity, Social Darwinism and Militarism as meshed ideological instruments of both power and persuasion.This magisterial study reveals the extraordinary and paramount influence of games fields as the ‘machine tools’ in an ‘industrial process’ with the schools as ‘workshops’ containing ‘cultural conveyor-belts’ for the production of robust, committed and confident servants of empire, and templates for imperial reproduction in imperial possessions. Mainly on efficient ‘production belt’ playing fields of the privileged minds were moulded, attitudes were constructed and bodies shaped – for imperial manhood. Earlier ‘manliness’ was metamorphosized, morality was redefined and militarism at the high point of imperial grandeur was an adjunct. Professor Mangan outlines this unique process of cultural conditioning with a unique range of evidence and analysis.This book was published as a special double issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.
