Plasma vs Fossil Fule Torches (from Agoracom)

Dear Moi,

With respect to Plasma being a "dryer" heat than fossil fuel burners:

Bingo! The client may be able to achieve either a dryer pellet or produce more pellets at the same water content. Either way, there is a very real potential for the torch to "pay for itself" ... game changer!

In my opinion, this was the most compelling reason why PYR only wanted to sell 1 torch... they don't know the results yet. The torch will work fine and absolutely keep up with the fossil fuel burners... but PYR needs to know if there is any kind of "pellet production boost".

If there is... the value (and price) of a torch goes way up, and the whole concept becomes a no brainer for all Clients to change every torch out there. $$$

Best regards,
Tim in Vancouver

Agreed dev-bc, Peter has taken steps to change what is usually the golden rule "he with the gold makes the rules"; that would typically be the major multi-billion$ intl iron ore producer. Well, in this case it appears that Peter is driving the bus, doing a deal for the first torch to collect valuable information that will allow him to negotiate the optimum price (higher!) for the large ...more

A dry pellet is a dry pellet. A plasma torch may produce a "flame" which contains less H2O than a conventional burner of #2 or #6 oil. In other words it may be able to produce that same dry pellet at reduced gross energy input. All of that will have been exposed by the modeling therefore it will not be a surprise only a validation. Not a game changer at all in that repect. This one ...more

I don't know enough about the dryness of pellets, but I believe this one prototype will one way or another enable PYR to charge clients at $3.5+ million per torch, and the client will be happy to pay.  that's why Peter never signed the purchase agreements in his in-box according to the interview.
