“Developing countries lack both clean water and clean energy sources. By converting soiled water into energy and clean water, a new project could wipe away both problems.”
Every since an organic waste conference I attended a few months ago, I’ve had anaerobic digestors on the mind – for farm, for municipal waste to energy, even for small-scale home systems. Decomposition of poop is an ancient process and we’re just ignoring it and pissing away the benefits. In a smaller and smarter planet, we’re going to have to take more control of the whole organics process – from food, to distribution, to waste, to energy and fertilizer.
