Summary:

[TSWG] has funded the construction of a transportable gasifier with the goal of processing large quantities of animal carcasses and plant materials resulting from agricultural emergency events. This unit may be useful for other homeland security-related events as an on-site treatment/disposal process. This gasifier converts the biomass material into an inert ash and a combustible synthesis gas that is burned in a secondary combustion chamber.
