 The Gasifier Experimenters Kit (GEK) wiki sandbox 

    Pushing wood gas beyond the Imbert 

 

       

 


This wiki is to support collaboration and iterative development of the Gasifier Experimenters Kit (GEK) from ALL Power Labs.  It is one of three main areas of information available; general information about the kit is on the main GEK info site, while general discussion and Q&A about the GEK is in the GEK discussion forum.   The wiki here is our live knowledge-base for GEK configuration specifics, add-ons and upgrades, run reports, raw science, practical engineering, and other topics of interest for gasifier geeks. custom web design

 

The wiki is open for any contributions and/or edits you would like to offer.  We hope you will join us for the GEK experiment in collaborative science and open source engineering.  To get our email updates, click here and fill in the blanks.
