Commercial composting is a tough business, there will always be some smell
since air is important to the process. If you just piled everything up and
mixed in a bunch of wood chips there wouldn't be any smell but it needs to be

Methane digester/recovery is old tech, as Curley just suggested.
It has some inherent negatives, however:
Low BTU content
Requirement to “scrub” and dry it, as in its raw form it’s highly corrosive
I can recall working on equipment around total confinement hog operations that
did methane
Sounds like another methane digester. Nothing new there. First one I
saw in operation was 1983 on a hog farm.
Of course you have to consider the sources: Vermont pointy heads and
