Polling Pick Up Trucks on Public Gasifiers



POLL: Pick Up Trucks on Public Gasifiers

When Owners of F-150, RAM, ... were asked:

Would you gather/transport Biomass (1/2ton)
to local Public Gasifier Stations to receive
credit for 1-200 pounds of CNG Fuel Gases?


The majority neither responded: Y or N
Most wanted to know "Where?".
Sadly, we replied: When?

*** Special Note ***
The vehicle fleet owned by small enterprises in alliance
with NGOs to gather Biomass as fund raising, can together
kick start their local economy (even more in remote areas).

Picking Economies Up Off the Ground

Re-Fuelling Economies = "Picking Economies up off the ground"
We can start immediately using FREE fuel that litters the ground in many countries that currently cannot afford the capital to buy Oil to power their Economy.

No need for special expensive alternate energy devices, simply "integrate" to most of our existing thermal power infrastructure and vehicular technology including SUVs emitting "greened smoke" TODAY.

Bio-Decay INDEX = Fast Emitters dataBases (Augmented Reality)

~ Global Bio-Decay Databases ~

Knowledge database to identify, inventory and monitor
emissions located by micro-ecosystems (GPS and Landmarks)

Why "Bio-Decay" Databases:

  - Ecosystems have different Half-Life index
      - (by location, biomass, biodiversity, )

  - Expect the emission rates for any given
      area to vary for many reasons: seasons,
      temperature, humidity, composition, ...



Target: Fastest Emitters:

  - by speed of emissions
  - by type of emissions (CO2,CH4)
  - with related diversity factors



Tools: Starting Up the databases

- merge existing biometrics (hist.: private, gov, nasa)
- update with on-going and new data types
- retrieve info from Biomass Markets



Biomass Markets:   Augmented Reality Portals:

Supply and Demand :
Providers/Brokers/Consumers
  - Suppliers: (gov, NGOs, biz, coops, ...)
  - Consumers: (vehicles, HVAC, BBQ, ...)

* Collection, transportation, triage, storage,
transformation, industrial and personal usage.



LOCATING Biomass:

- (sites) NGO Container
- (sites) Drop.Off Centers (distance?) (schedule?)
- (sites) private Biomass (+Rates)
- (sites) Processing Centers (distance?) (schedule?)

*using Smartphone, PC, Tablet, DashVisor,



LOCATING Fuels:   (sites) Fuel Storage

~ BIOMASS QUEST ~
  - Location (GPS, Landmarks, distance, detour, return)
  - Quantity, Format, Packaging,
  - Certif, references, organic?,
  - Prices, Agreements, Coops,
  - Hold/Schedule Pick up


Half Life of Biomass = Identifying CO2 Emitters (Bio-Decay)

[+] Half Life of Biomass = "Bio-Decay" (First 50% of biomass)
~ Half Life of Biomass ~

"Time for bio-Decay to remove 50% of Biomass"



A micro-ecosystem loses 50% of biomass
to bio-decay over a period of two years,
while producing GW gases CO2 and CH4.



[+] Why 50%? = "Parity at Half Life of Compost"




[+] Beyond Parity = Dark Soil for Eons"s

Importance of Soil Structure

Due to the porous structure of biochar it aids the construction of root systems by giving smaller roots systems better access to nutrition and support creating a larger and more stable rooting of the plants grown with biochar.

"Biochar may have the ability to mitigate drought by increasing soil moisture, while decreasing soil erosion and nutrient leaching." - biocharfarms.org


[+] Performance of Biochar (1) = BioChar vs Soil




[+] Performance of Biochar (2) = BioChar/NPK vs NPK




[+] Performance of Biochar (3) = BioChar vs NPK




[+] Performance of Biochar (4) = BioChar/NPK vs Soil




[+] Biochar Multiplies Expensive Farm (P)hosphates
Florida Drinking Water ~ Vs ~ Mississippi Corn Fields
Florida Drinking Water

Biochar Removes Phosphates

Florida cities use biochar to filter out
extra (P)hosphates from drinking Water.
Mississippi Holds Expensive Phosphates

Corn Biochar Holds Phosphates

- Keeps expensive (P)hosphates
- Improves crop yields
- Higher drought resistance
Avoid Blooms in the Gulf ...Dead Zones

- Avoids leaching into Mississippi
- Avoids Blooms in Gulf ...Dead Zones.

Myth of Soil


[+] Myth of Soil



[+] Compost = Bio-Decay = 95% of All CO2 Emissions
95/5

Bio-Decay = 95% of All CO2 Emissions

"Biomass bacterial decomposition worldwide is by
far the major source of CO2 climate change gas."


• Ratio of 95% by natural decomposition.
• In earlier times, Nature made 100% of the CO2 gases.
• Human activities of this time were mostly non-fossil.

Nature is taking in part of the extra CO2, but not fast
enough for increased "new" CO2 in the system.

"Compost = 99% CO2 + 1% Minerals"

Compost and Mulch rot away to a few trace minerals.

* Always needing more compost just to maintain level!

"Compost = Soil Erosion"

In Warm Humid climates, Biomass has a Short Half-Life.
Biochar can stabilise this situation (see later: "Soil.2.0").


[+] Compost's Footprint = from 100% to 2200%
"Compost's Footprint = from 100% to 2200%"

100% = Aerobic

Most biomass is consumed by aerobic bacteria using O2 to oxidize the carbon to CO2.

* returns 100% of the carbon
* fungi consume lignin (aerobic)

2200% = Anaerobic

Even Higher CO2 equivalents are produced (CH4=methane),
when anaerobic bacteria get to lunch on biomass.


* Only less than 1% biomass is returned as minerals.
* CH4 is 22X equivalents of CO2 as GW gases.


[+] Organic Slime = "Compost EATS Soil"
bacteria

Compost does not create Soil
Humid Warm moist compost is feeding bacteria aerobic and anaerobic that are munching your compost and farting away all of your Soil until completly gone while emitting GW gases CO2 and CH4 (methane).
