Hi all,

At the moment I'm researching into using a flow through water pasteurizer for a project I'm organizing in Nigeria (the Kaduna region) next summer (July/August 2010). I'm writing up a project proposal for a few companies interested in lending support and funding. For this I need to write up a proposed budget for the project. I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with this type of costing approach for a water pasteurizer in Nigeria or anywhere similar or whether I should plan the budget according to equivalent UK costs?

If anyone has any questions regarding the project or suggestions about it I would be glad to hear them.

Thanks

Alex

I think you could check out the clock based dripper tracker, 2 parabolic troughs to make a point focus, water clock dripper trackers and the kyoto trough idea. Also somethhing like the winston w dish seems worthwhile. Nobody is checking out any of those ideas right now and it is pretty wasteful just to copy what has gone before. (In my opinion).
Any and every one of those may help you design somethiing more efficient and I think that is the point of research in the long term.
