TDP, as chemistry, was discovered a long time ago. The problem then was the one that the poster stated. But the CWT method recovers and uses much of the lost energy to preheat the incoming slurry.

Still no need to fertilize weeds. You don't seem to understand the role that fertilizers play. There are many different types of fertilizers. They must be mated to the soil chemistry of the field and to the type of plant that you are trying to grow. The fertilizer changes the soil chemistry to the type that the plant grows best in. I use the word "weeds" to describe any plant that has already evolved to grow wild in a soil type without human aid. It is already suited to the soil and needs no fertilizer.

To get more weeds, it would be cheaper to simply run the harvester over a second fallow field, than to try to increase the weed yield of a particular field.

You seem to search for objections to TDP, and all of the ones you have come up with have been based on bad information. When I see that repeadedly, I suspect an agenda instead of genuine research.

Do you desire for TDP to be a failure?
