That would be so cool to have. You can burn just about anythng in that unit.

The only problems I see is:
1. they like to be run at or near 100% at all times.
2. serviceing the unit is expensive!!!

I see no reason why you can't run WVO. Gas turbines can be set up to run pretty much any type of liquid fuel oil. Finding someone to set it up is another challange. i don't think I am ready to jump in setting up gas turbines. I worked on gas turbines back in 1984. To bad the company folded. It was a very intresting job. I worked in the ballancing shop. We worked on some pretty expensive engines.

if only i were a rich man's son!

It's always someone else, isn't it?  :P Here I've been drooling over a steam turbine generator on the local craigslist...anybody know where I can get a boiler that puts out 52,000lbs/hour steam at 200 PSI? ;D
Do engines get rewarded for their steam?
