Creating decentralised power production as part of the process of cleaning up biowaste is possible anywhere there is a concentration of humans or livestock. This process not only saves all the fossil fuel burning of the fuel it directly replaces, it saves all the energy used to mine and transport fuel and energy from other sources, but it also would remove immense amounts of biomass going to land fills and producing methane. Icing on the cake-it's effluents are high quality organic fertiliser (replacing Nitrogen from natural gas) and a smaller amount of CO2 than would be produced if the feedstock were simply allowed to rot. Big energy cannot pursue this right now, due to the fact that it would make oil, coal and nuclear less valuable and damage value for stockholders. I can send you lots of non-fringe links.Sabra Marcrofthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06002632848102729596noreply@blogger.com
