Billionaire technocrats and a neo-nuclear world

The six inch air gap in the system removes the back pressure, then a compressor adds it back?

I am skeptical.

edit:
I don't think I sounded scornful enough.

The exhaust is maybe 3" (typically oriented straight up) and there is a 6" gap. That's 1.5 square feet of exposure to any cross wind at 360°. Maybe the peak of an exhaust pulse would leap the gap but the leading and trailing edges wouldn't.

The re-compressor would have to fight the internal skin friction of all that plumbing. Possibly helped by rerouting everything under the axle to vicinity of the drawbar and running a negative three inch gap to actually create a Coanda Effect.

Well do check out that farmer forum link where farmers are discussing doing and actually doing this.

I would say you want to bubble the exhaust through water 1st at the very least:
Any hydrocarbons should float up where they can be drawn off, then you slowly send the water down into the ground too..?

What people ignore is the history of nuclear power in the Pittsburgh PA. It started with the reactor in Shippingport. The original vessel was replaced and the plant expanded. I have relatives who have worked in the installations and operations with no ill effects.
