Beischens.......I think we would have to dig more deeply into the numbers. ONE KDS would process 3 tons/hour. If you need 20 tons per hour, then you would need 7 KDS (even better, if you are a FASC investor).
The next question would be cost. 7 KDS would cost about $2 million. We know that coal is cheaper than biomass, but you have a strong push these days away from coal, so politics and incentives also enter the game.....hence cogeneration coal/biomass plants are becoming more desirable, which would suit the KDS perfectly.
I think the real answers in coal/biomass cogeneration are far more complex and specific to the targeted areas; i.e. also involving cap and trade, carbon credits, political climate, etc.
In the meantime, the KDS is currently involved in numerous other areas and applications, almost beyond comprehension.
