Thrive Off Grid

Ok so work has begun on the Pellet version of the Fusion Stove / Char pellet processor. Its getting colder here in Mich and I will be in need for this very soon.

Im building the pellet version first as it is based on the latest reactors used in the gasifiers and I already know the capability of char production. However, in a stove application I have tuned and modified this a bit to draft from a chimney. This borrows concepts from the Enduro stove as well and features a dedicated cook top making it EPA exempt. Even though I anticipate this thing to blow away any EPA test put in front of it.

I did not add a hot water loop in this one but we can easily implement this in the heat exchange tower.

This has an active grate system just like the gasifiers and can be set up with or with out the auger drag out system. It has a three stage air system. A primary stage, a full combustion stage and a bypass stage for char coal production.

In heat stage the air passed thru the char bed from the bottom. In char pellet production stage the air enters above the grate bypassing it allowing the char pellets to remain in tact and fall through a very passive grate system.

I should have this demo complete today so video should be coming soon. The cordwood version we will start work on as well but this version will need to be put through its paces in development and testing over some time before I can offer it for market. :fire:
