Turning human waste into renewable energy explained. The first 1,000 people to use the link or my undecidedwithmattferrell will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: https://skl.sh/undecidedwithmattferrell04221 When it comes to renewable energy, solar panels, wind turbines, and hydropower keep coming up as number 1, but what about number 2? Literally. I’m talking about ... well, poop. There’s a rich, carbon-neutral resource that we could tap into: Turning human waste into energy instead of flushing it down the toilet. It could be used as a coal alternative, carbon sequestration, strengthening concrete and more. There’s an old technology, hydrothermal carbonization, that’s starting to make a splash and might change the way you think about number 2. Let’s see if we can come to a decision on turning waste into energy and if it’s worth it.

getting shit done with your shit.
IF shit is cooked and dried to make sterile and parasite free bricks, it's a good SLOW burning solid fuel.... I don't know how good and slow burning it is.... But people use dried cattle shit for fuel.... But if the furnace was designed for HIGH combustion temperatures with a strong preheat of the incoming air, and after the combustion, then the heat is used to drive other process's, it can be a good thing.... BUT IF all the shit and all the food waste etc., was decomposed and heat sterilised, it would be better to use it to fertilise the farm lands instead of chemical fertilisers...
