Notes from Today
Biodigestors
Different inputs: Rotten veggies (organic plant matter), or human waste.
Lack of cow and pig manure available
Existing biodigestor with cow and pig manure
concerns: access to plants... shouldn’t endanger food security (regional research-- what kinds of waste there is. What kinds of waste are most effective.)
“We would like the design to be an affordable alternative to cooking with firewood.”
“The initial installation of the system should cost no more than US$200 and should use materials locally available. Fuel to be added to the biodiogester should be on a par of what is spent weekly in firewood consumption (approximately US$3) so that this can be a viable alternative.”
