I'd imagine not very good, other than being carbon neutral... The main idea is that the wood is gassified, then the wood gas is put through the carb and off you go.
Have you ever been around an outdoor boiler? They release almost all the wood gas without burning it when they are damped down and they stink up quite a large area. I'd hope this would be better. Anyways wood isn't easy to burn cleanly but if they could get the exhaust as clean as an EPA woodstove the pollution wouldn't be too obnoxious in a rural setting.
