[USCC] Costs of pelletizing

[CAVM@aol.com]

Maureen, heat and electrical power can be made via gasification using  
similar inputs to those which might be used for bulking and carbon sources in  
composting. Wood, nut hulls, crop residue, biosolids, animal manure, etc can 
be  gasified to produce virtually any amount of heat required. The gas 
produced can  also be used in a wide variety of engines to produce electrical 
power,  mechanical energy, pumping, etc.
 
Using these techniques a greenhouse can be developed to become your compost 
 customer in any environment. We can heat and light a greenhouse in any 
area from  Alaska to Gaza.  In this way you can develop customers for your soil 
 amendments.

Toronto  is paying nearly $3M per year for natural gas and electricity 
alone per year  for the pelletizer to yeild about 18,000 dry tonnes.  That is 
$167 per  dry tonne of pellets....and no one will pay that much to purchase 
the  pellets
