Chad, the link you provided does not work, is there any others ?

Litter gasification is something I have worked on some, though the project is on hold due to a lack of funding. www.lostriverfarms.com Gasification or pyrolysis is a good option though I would not rule out digestion. One of the main drawbacks to digestion is the lack of methagans in the litter. At Lost River Farms we successfully produced burnable gas (however somewhat low btu content) that could be used in a boiler. The key is automation of the perimeters that produces this gas as it is not cost effective for most farmers to hire someone to run the process. Because this process is somewhat complex it appears that the few companies that have worked on these projects end up scaleing their units fairly large so as to bring in litter from surrounding farms rather than developing their units for individual farm use.

He have chicken manure (only manure, no bed material) with a moiture of 13%m (drying is done directly by the heat given by chicken...it seems that this heat will be lost if it is not used to dry chicken manure). This manure can not be used in a biogas plant due to its low moisture content. Actually, in France, manure gasification or incineration should meet the requirement of MSW incineration. I am looking for manure thermal treaters, but it seems that though some companies claimed on their website that their technologies could gasify or burn manure, when I contact them, they say they are not focus on this issue.
