I gave you a 10 cubic meters capacity as an example. The manual start at 4 cubic meter approximately 2-3 cattles (24 Kg and 24litters). My guess is that any dung can do, pigs included. Once I asked the guy at BSP about humans and the answer was "as long as you have the quantity".
You know what, I'll scan it send it to you and Keith, maybe Keith has a place for it on a web site... and you decide what you want to do with it once you read it. What about that ?

While I do have 2 cows, they are pastured at all times, so collecting their dung is not convenient. We do have rabbits, [At present 30, but this changes constantly,]humans [2] and pigs [5] that the dung is easy to collect. I am hoping to create a small system that I can use to cook with in the summer and to learn on. When I find out how well the system works with our lives, then I will be looking at a larger system that can generate electricity. If I can eliminate my AC bill in the summer, the system could pay for itself fairly quickly.
