The total US yearly manure production capacity is about 2,100,000,000
tons. The MSOP can accomidate the 40% moisture content of which
1,260,000,000 tons of dry content is estimated.
The dollar value is 1,260,000,000 tons/year * $648/ton of waste or
$816,480,000,000 per year
At 150 gallons of bio-diesel per dry ton of cow waste, production of
189 billion gallons per year of bio-diesel is possible.
By comparison, the 2004 U,S diesel use was 62 billion gallons with
on-road use at 37 billion gallons.
That is astounding! I had no idea the . . . <uh> numbers were so big.
Thanks for the info.
