__ Cow Waste  __

Cows' waste can be turned into electricity  The fluid from one of the cow's stomachs can produce about 600 millivolts of electricity. Microorganisms can also generate electricity. The cow waste will be put in a generating digester. This then makes a type of gas. This will be able to generate approximately 6.5 million kilowatt hours a year from the waste of about 800 milk cows, and supply electricity to 600 homes. According to the Wisconsin Public Service Corp., the price depends on the farm specifications. W ill reduce greenhouse gas and generate carbon and renewable energy.

 * Pros

The digester cuts both odors as well as the volume of solid manure by 90 percent, therefore minimizing surface and groundwater contamination.

The designers don't know how much it can create, but estimate an average size tree can produce enough energy for a single household. Can eventually power parks, suburban streets, highways, and anywhere else groups of trees are found.

It it set up just like a hydroelectric Dam Using the same system, you can also get power from rain flowing down your gutters.
