Basics

  • A device that generates carbon dioxide for use in greenhouses etc
  • Uses some sort of fuel (Such as Ethanol, Methane, Methanol, Dimethyl Ether, or Biodiesel)


Used For

  • Increasing the Carbon Dioxide concentration of a Greenhouse's atmosphere which increases yield (assuming everything else is addressed before moving on to using this see Law of the Minimum
