From cow poop to power … methane digesters are catching on

It’s been a long, long time coming but what is not uncommon in Europe, India, and China is coming State-side, the methane digester.  What a methane digester does is to take the naturally occurring methane from a manure pile or pond and convert it into clean methane to be piped or burned on site for electricity generation.

Farmers in the States have found that they earn money, reduce odor, reduce pollution, make fertilizer, and animal bedding putting in these digesters.  Sounds like a good deal to me.
