Water Pumping and Biochar Production in One

 

Results of the recent test runs showed that the carbonizer-pump system could pump water at a rate of 15 liters per minute or around 900 liters per hour.  This is quite an encouraging result considering the fact that we are just using the otherwise-wasted heat generated during the rice hull carbonization process to provide the needed energy to pump water.
