tvoivozhd---I think a friend of mine originated and patented making of ethanol from wood waste in the U.S. He came out of the papermill business. Because of cheap oil competition, he found it more profitable to stop the process at conversion of wood waste to quite sweet cattle feed from cellulose and hemicellulose, had a large number of licensees in Africa. Think I still have his patents out in my West Barn, maybe pictures of his research operation in Oklahoma. His was a batch process using big spherical cookers.

tvoivozhd---you must have done something terrible to get thrown off the
longboat in BC. Where in BC?, used to get up to Nanaimo a lot.
Fred Enga: - I keep following the general discussions of Leif Ericson and his
dad Eric the Red. From Norway to England, many years there, to then live in
various parts of Europe, then the long pull at the oars to Philadelphia for
6 years. Then drawn to the snow and spent six years in North Ontario in
Canada, and now 7 years in Mission BC. As a specialist in the industrial
production of fuel ethanol from wood waste, I am now in wood waste heaven
(and it's a really great place to live). Like all Nogs, when we find a
place like Norway we are happy and settle down, forgetting completely the
reasons we left Norway are because it looks like Norway. We are experts at
farming both sides of the acre and rock picking.
