RE: Taking Care of Business – Methane Digesters
Digestors are awesome, if you have the animals to fuel them.
Read an article on a digestor at a dog park used to run gas lights at night, but it cant remember the source.
Did recall one Id read about:
Gas lights run on doggie doo-doo? That's a wonderful idea, but it shows how we are just scratching the surface of possible applications of this great technique. I can also see the reaction: cute, but gas lights are so archaic...! Except in this case the resource is locally produced and would otherwise constitute an annoying waste product.
Anyhow, thanks for the link too! The first thing that struck my eye was: "Manure digesters cannot (...) remove other contaminants like hormones and anti-microbials." Then, how about not putting them in, in the first place? Digesters wouldn't remove radioactive contamination either, if it was polluted with it. As for the political hurdles... I'm not surprised. But come a major MAJOR crisis, and see how accommodating everyone gets, if it's not too late by then. :-(
Found it!
