IIRC, Tina Turner had a hog digester to run her ThunderDome way back in the ’80’s. Must have learned that from before Peak Oil and Mad Maxx. Local County landfill became a methane harvesting operation almost 30 years ago when it was “de-comissioned”. Not sure it makes much power, but it is a bunch prettier to drive past now.
Then the local elected idiocy decided we needed to pay them to cart off our food scraps and yard bits to be turned into high cost compost. The heaps spread around three counties are putrid stench producers that cause all manner of consternation as nearby residents try to figure out where the stench of putrid death and rotted fruit is produced. The heaps are strategically located to take advantage of tides or other “natural” features (sewage plants) to mask the reek of ripped off tax payers. clay > On Aug 22, 2019, at 12:04 PM, Curley McLain via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > Sounds like another methane digester.
