71 year old father builds wood burning truck: the longest can walk two miles.
the enthusiasm of people to study new energy seems to have been exceptionally high. Not long ago, we reported cool wind powered motorcycles. Now we have a more intense wood burning car. Don Mannes from the US is 71 years old, but his enthusiasm for innovation remains high. Mannes installed a wood burning stove at the back of his truck - yes, not charcoal, or wood. After burning wood, carbon monoxide and hydrogen will provide a driving force for trucks.
if you think this is a steam locomotive reversion, the pollution is very inefficient and low. That's wrong. Mannes said that this pound of wood would allow the truck to walk two miles. And it's a smokeless boiler invented by Mannes. In fact, he invented the smokeless boiler first and then gave birth to the idea of changing a truck.
the working mechanism of this truck is: when the wood starts burning in the boiler, the temperature inside the furnace rises to 2600 degrees in four minutes. After that, carbon monoxide and hydrogen are powered by a filter chamber filled with hay and straw and then powered by trucks.
although it does not seem like this, wood burning trucks are actually very environmentally friendly. Even if there are ashes left at the end, they can also be used for farming.
