I have a problem; any insight would be appreciated.

Though it is expensive to set up, processing MSW in gasifiers would seem to
be a good idea, especially now.

They make fuel at a reasonable cost, stop landfills from making methane,
and sort out trash into useful product streams, like syngas, construction
slag, and metals.

However, the idea gets no traction, and I don't know why. If I did, I would
fix it if possible.

I have speculated that the wide range of pieces might be the problem. It
combines solar PV, large power converters, and Victorian gas making
chemistry.

When I was a kid, gas works and gas holders were still seen all over the
country. But they were all torn down by the mid 1950s.

Your thoughts would be appreciated.
