Powered by Chicken Litter

07/15/2005 8:30 AM

Gas Technology Institute (GTI) has successfully demonstrated that chicken litter can be gasified to produce hydrogen and generate electricity using a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). Under a project funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Earth Resources, Inc. (prime contractor), GTI, and the University of Georgia are working to convert chicken litter into energy and fertilizer. As part of this USDA-funded project, GTI conducted a test to demonstrate the suitability of chicken litter as a low-Btu fuel for the SOFC.

Bads smells

It seams that almost anything that smells nasty has a lot of energy in it. I wonder if it has to do with the hydrogen.
