Africa leads World in tapping into a free and eco friendly renewable fuel – biogas.
Getting Off Oil, Special Report, World news Monday, July 23rd, 2012The poorest nations on Earth are leading the World in becoming energy self-sufficient. African nations will no longer be slaves to fossil fuels. They are are now tapping into an infinite supply of renewable eco friendly fuel – biogas. Construction of small biogas plants, like the one pictured above, has already begun across Africa. Soon all of Africa and Asia will be energy self-sufficient.
Africa is smarter than the rest of the World. They have realized the infinite potential of biofuel and have taken action to utilize this free renewable energy source, decades ahead of the rest of the World.
Africa knows that it is possible for every city and town in the World to produce their own energy fuel supply and be eco friendly. The infrastructure is already there and the fuel is already being pumped through existing pipelines under every city and town in the world. This fuel source is produced 24/7, 365 days of the year, since man and beast first inhabited Earth and is free for the taking.
Currently Canadian and U.S. cities pump billions of liters of untreated sewage into the Great Lakes every year. The main reason for pumping raw sewage into the Great Lakes is a financial reason. Before now cities saw sewage as worthless. It costs $millions to treat sewage and some cities just don’t have the budget to treat all of the sewage. “Millions of Ontarians and their kids, drink, bathe, and eat food grown with Great Lakes water yet cities are to this day pumping billions of liters of “untreated” sewage into them. The answer to the cities needs both for energy and water treatment is treating the human sewage as a fuel source.
How can human sewage be used as a fuel source? How can human sewage generate electricity to power street cars, lights, air conditioners, home appliances and business computers and machines? As unappealing as it may seem human sewage can cut greenhouse gases, help cleanup water supplies and add a new source of green and endlessly renewable fuel. Left on its own to decay, waste pumped from septic systems (known as septage) produce methane gas (a powerful greenhouse gas in itself) and carbon dioxide, the most popularized greenhouse gas. The result is steady supply of methane that can be used directly as fuel or mixed with natural gas for pipeline distribution. (Natural gas is mostly methane. The mix is relatively easy.) Septic waste could become a valuable commodity since it could be used to make fuel. If septic waste were channeled away from wastewater treatment facilities those facilities would be left to process only gray water, like dirty dish water.
Methane Fuel Generation From Human Wastes
– Anaerobic fermentation or digestion is the most promising process for converting organic materials to methane and other gases.
– A simple apparatus can be constructed to produce bio-gas.
– Bio-gas usually contains about 60 to 70 percent methane, 30 to 40 percent carbon dioxide, and other gases.
Converting organic materials, such as human wastes, to an easily used form of fuel can be accomplished by several methods. The process with the greatest potential is anaerobic fermentation or digestion.
The extraction of fuel from wastes using anaerobic digestion to produce bio-gas is not new and the general technology is well known. Bio-gas, which is methane and other gases, has been known as swamp gas, sewer gas and fuel gas. Sewage treatment plants generate bio-gas from the sewage sludge as part of the sewage treatment processes. Since sewage treatment is a 24/7 process bio-gas is being produced 24/7 as well. Today though, the bio-gas is not collected and used as a fuel source for the energy needs of the city, it is all vented. Using human waste to produce a renewable fuel source is not rocket science. All you have to know is how the fuel is produced and then you simply make modifications to the sewage processing plants to start producing an unending supply of fuel.
First off methane is produced by bacteria. The bacteria are anaerobes and operate only in anaerobic environments (no free oxygen). Constant temperature, pH and fresh organic matter promote maximum methane production. Temperatures usually are maintained at approximately 95 degrees F. Other temperatures can be used if held constant. For each 20 degrees F decrease, gas production will be cut approximately one half or will take twice as long. A constant temperature is critical. Temperature variations of as little as 5 degrees F can inhibit the methane-formers enough to cause acid accumulation and possible digester failure.
Anaerobic digestion is a series of processes in which micro organisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen and is widely used to treat wastewater. As part of an integrated waste management system, anaerobic digestion reduces the emission of landfill gas into the atmosphere. Anaerobic digestion is widely used as a renewable energy source because the process produces a methane and carbon dioxide rich biogas suitable for energy production helping replace fossil fuels. Also, the nutrient-rich digestate can be used as fertiliser. The digestion process begins with bacterial hydrolysis of the input materials in order to break down insoluble organic polymers such as carbohydrates and make them available for other bacteria. Acidogenic bacteria then convert the sugars and amino acids into carbon dioxide, hydrogen, ammonia, and organic acids. Acetogenic bacteria then convert these resulting organic acids into acetic acid, along with additional ammonia, hydrogen, and carbon dioxide. Methanogens, finally are able to convert these products to methane and carbon dioxide.
Anaerobic digestion is a two-part process and each part is performed by a specific group of organisms. The first part is the breakdown of complex organic matter (manure) into simple organic compounds by acid-forming bacteria. The second group of microorganisms, the methane-formers, break down the acids into methane and carbon dioxide. In a properly functioning digester, the two groups of bacteria must balance so that the methane-formers use just the acids produced by the acid-formers.
Anaerobic digestion facilities have been recognised by the United Nations Development Programme as one of the most useful decentralised sources of energy supply, as they are less capital intensive than large power plants.
A simple apparatus can produce bio-gas. The amount of the gas and the reliability desired have a great influence on the cost and complexity of the system. A simple batch-loaded digester requires an oxygen-free container, relatively constant temperature, a means of collecting gas, and some mixing. Because methane gas is explosive, appropriate safety precautions are needed.
The solution to 2 very major problems (energy needs and waste treatment) that the World faces is already flowing beneath their streets. The solution is provided by its citizens 24/7 making it the most abundant and endlessly renewable source of fuel. Just redirecting sewage into a digester in urban areas meets the entire Kyoto protocol requirements for North American cities without even considering the natural gas production.
For over 100 years mankind has been made slaves to metered energy. Those who control the metering of energy controls the World. We all know that energy is power but the power the elitists have and are determined to keep doesn’t have anything to do with electricity. The power they have and intend on keeping is domination. By metering (controlling) energy output they control every aspect of our lives. Energy powers our lights, our home appliances. our electronic entertainment, our communications, our transportation system, our schools, our industry, our health care … our everything. Today energy is as essential as fresh air. food and water and this essential need is what makes us slaves. We are forced into slavery by metered energy. Metered energy forces mankind to pay are be denied access to energy. Until such a time as energy is no longer metered we will be and continue to be slaves to the elitists.
For over 100 years now mankind has been addicted to oil. Metered oil supply and output has been used by the elitists to enslave mankind. For over 100 years oil has been controlled by the elitists through their stock markets. Stock markets were set up as a stock metering (control) system.
Today the elitists from the United States, Britain and France are launching illegal unprovoked wars of aggressions against oil producing countries like Iraq and Libya, and illegally planning for and preparing for war with Syria and Iran. The goal of these illegal wars is to seize control of this finite source of metered energy. They are intentionally mass murdering millions of innocent people so that they can remain as masters of mankind. Why now? Their domination of man is fast coming to an end now that their own oil supply sources in the United States and Saudi Arabia are running out.
Africa and Asia are the first to free themselves from the slavery of metered energy. Isn’t it time you too became a oil free and independent nation?
No more expensive drilling for fuel deposits. No more waging wars of aggression to steal control of the last remaining oil and natural gas. No more Exxon Mobil and BP oil spill disasters. Man is the #1 renewable and biodegradable fuel source that can fuel every city and town around the World.
