=A0 =A0 Nov 18, 2012=0A=A0  After sending the e-mail earlier today I notice=
d that some of the waste heat (about 65% ?) from a plant of this type could=
 be used to dry the chips before burning. When green wood is burned about 2=
5% of the heat energy is used to evaporate water. So the waste heat would r=
eadily do this with ~40% left over for other purposes.=0AYt, DW
