Here's the inventory of proposed and/or implemented hearth mods, tar recycling systems, filter improvements, automated start up, auger fuel feeding, etc, etc, etc. Some of this is ready to go currently. Some is in process. Some is hoped for in the future. And some has already been found to not be interesting and thus passed into the "inactive" section. You are encouraged to add ideas and implementations of your own to this resource list.
Items of Current Interest (as of September, 09)
New System Architectures
- The Hot TOTTI: "Tower of Total Thermal Integration". Full integration of "waste heats" between the gasifier - engine system.

New Reactor Inserts
-
11 Inch Reactor: Larger hearth area for standard size GEK
