Compression of Wood Gas Into Propane Bottles
Some aspects to consider
- the energy required to drive the compressor is considerable
- energy density of wood gas is low, much lower than natural gas
- more hazardous than diesel (carbon monoxide poisoning)
- possible corrosion to compressor (due to hydrogen)
