January 30th, 2012. Testing Time 27 minutes. Propane as fuel source. Correlated exhaust (density/velocity/moisture) variations to stages of pyrolysis and carbonization.
Charcoal produced with 27-28% volatile content. Goal is 30% volatile content.
Improvement:
Cut off fuel source earlier to prevent burning of charcoal. Mass percentage of feedstock lost is too large.
