South Korea Wednesday opened its first domestic-designed power plant using animal waste for fuel as part of efforts to provide a new source of evironmentally friendly energy, officials said. The 30-kilowatt plant in Icheon, 60 kilometers (36 miles) southeast of Seoul, can process 20 tons of animal waste a day, the ministry of commerce, energy and industry said. "There are several small power plants using animal waste for fuel, which were built by foreign firms, but this is our first indigenously designed plant," ministry official Choi Byung-Dal told AFP.
