Turning Waste Into Windfall

Shawn Saylor of Hillcrest Saylor Farm in Rockwood, Pennsylvania has saved $200,000 by taking what most Dairy Farmers regard as waste and turning it into energy. With the use of a Methane Digester, Saylor takes his dairy cows manure, cultivates it and harvests the methane. The methane is then used to power a generator that provides electricity for his farm and enough to sell back to the energy grid...

    • sorry to be skeptical engineman, but there have been other claims of such technology, but they seem to have fallen through. I do hope this is a good one. Is there a patent on this invention and do you have all of this scientifically proven??

      Regjoeschmo,
      Almost every body is sceptical, "If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is too good to be true" is a phrase I've heard quite frequently. Well, here's another saying "can't see the forest for the trees" and that's what's happened here, my engine is so simple that nobody has seen it even though the concept has been under their noses all along!
      We have applied for several patents,
      Imperial College London have checked it out and are very enthusiastic, we are now arranging for the thermodynamic models to prove the claims for, efficiency, economy and emissions.

    • I'm the Inventor of a light weight, extremely frugal and efficient, variable compression, Tri-Brid, Green engine with direct energy recovery and it is directly compatible with braking energy capture for automotive use.
      It can be easily retro - fitted to existing Gas Guzzlers as well as to new vehicles.
      Fitting ultra efficient engines to new vehicles ONLY stops things getting worse. Cheaply upgrading existing stock REDUCES the current unsustainable levels of green house gasses.
      Variable compression allows my engine to run on virtually any gaseous or liquid fuel inc' Bio Digester gas or Petro-Chem waste gas. Because of the novel way this engine works it is very tolerant to corrosive and dirty fuels so there is far less done time for maintenance and oil changes.
      We can all produce our own Organic Waste Gas from a simple bio-digester, my engine will convert this gas, cleanly and cheaply into mechanical and electrical power .
      Most people think if it sounds too good to be true then it is. Well not this time, I'm not a crank just an ordinary engineer with an idea too big for me to handle on my own.
      I'm looking for a serious industrial partner to help bring it to market.

    • This works 100% ! Peak hour times are great for your pocket ! Unless you live in Calf. then the farms have to give away the over amounts of power to the power company for free. I dont know why.
