      I'm wondering if a little extra VOCs in the storebought don't make for a slightly hotter/more sustained burn temp🤔
      You'd definitely want the homemade for filters and consumption and such, though.

    • @Slowly_Going_Mad
      @Slowly_Going_Mad 4 года назад +6

      @I-Love-CO Mountains the store bought stuff burns cooler because of volatile components: latent heat of evaporation plus the endothermic nature of last phase of pyrolysis. That's why if you want to smelt ore you should use a glassy high carbon substance. The lower burn temp of grilling coal gives more consistent heating for less experienced users and the added tarry smoke flavor.👍

      Actually not that far off. There was a paper that talked about how older trees didn't convert/use as much CO2 as younger trees, so, to help out the problem, they proposed to cut out older trees and start planting new ones on a huge scale, also getting the wood profit. Combine that to this carbon method taking advantage of the residual energy to transform it to electrical and no more climate change.
      I know it sounds stupid, but in a small scale as Cody made here he could wrap around some copper pipe and use it as a winter water heater.

  • @fuzzywzhe
    @fuzzywzhe 7 месяцев назад +1

    My family used to make charcoal when I was a kid. It's done by limiting oxygen intake as wood is burned.
    We took a bunch of dead trees that the men that worked for my grandfather pulled out of the forest (we also made maple syrup), and stuffed into a building made of concrete bricks. The concrete could breathe a little, but not enough to get a blazing fire. It would smolder for days (weeks?), and once it was opened up, we had charcoal. I remember my grandfather checking the heat of the wall to determine when it should be opened up. What was produced he sold, although some of it, we kept and used.
    Lost art in my family I think at this point.

    Preparing the charcoal with the fish is very good. A lot of people don't do a step like that and end up with poor results. When you mentioned quenching the charcoal with water to soak it, I am reminded that many of your videos involve a vacuum chamber. Your various vacuum setups could easily perform the soaking step without having to juggle smouldering coals. Just evacuate a chamber of the charcoal, close the vacuum port, and open a port to some stankwater to load up the coals.

  • @sirawesomeness7543
    @sirawesomeness7543 4 года назад +2

    I noticed you were on a shortage of water out by the chicken hole in your last base and thought of the easiest way to generate it where you are: distillation from plants. 70%+ of their weight is water and can be evaporated out during the charcoal process into a cooling chamber where the steam condensates into a fairly clean water (and somewhat volatile). Given that you had 20 kg of wood, and 15 kg was baked out of it, you could extract close to 15 L of volatile water. This could be used directly on the machinery or to water plants with nutrients already added, or it could be distilled further to make potable drinking water and potentially plumbing.
    As for the sunflowers, you can probably extract oils from the flowering plants, extract some water using that process, and use the leftover plant waste to make charcoal. This would be an incredibly resource efficient process despite being time inefficient. You’d get oil (for fuel), water (for above purposes), and charcoal (for the videos purposes).

    • @kreynolds1123
      @kreynolds1123 4 года назад

      Even after all the water has been vaporized, burning dried plant material would produce a fair amount of water. Cellulose is a chain of (C6H10O5). Adding 6(O2) from the air for complete combustion and you'll have 6(CO2) and 5(H2O).
      Although you will likely get a fair bit of volatils from incomplete combustion. Maybe they could filtered out through charcoal, and neutralise wood vinegar with wood ash, and then distill everything on a relativly low heat. Lots of work for sure but you can have access to even more water even if the plants are already fairly dry.

    • @sirawesomeness7543
      @sirawesomeness7543 4 года назад +1

      Keith Reynolds yeah which is why I suggested he does both vaporizations. As for just filtering water through charcoal, I wouldn’t trust my life on it- especially since the charcoal isn’t pure carbon. There’s still lots of alkalis and metals that don’t evaporate out of the charcoal that could contaminate the water. Also the water itself might have ions that can’t be filtered out through charcoal. Best bet for potable water would be to distill it
