[Digestion] Bioenergy Australia Annual Conference

[David]

Rose and listers, Hello,

The work on small-scale biogas digesters in India is going fairly well 
and is described in my book "Small-Scale, Rural Biogas Programmes", 
published by Practical Action (January 2015 
-http://developmentbookshop.com/smallscale-rural-biogas-programmes). 
However, this does not meet the need for electricity generation. 
Traditionally organic waste has not been a problem, as it is fed to 
animals. However, in the cities and larger towns, the number of 
wandering animals is declining, as the gardens in which they used to 
live are being built on, as land value increases.

I am working with some groups in India, as well as other parts of South 
Asia, to develop a low-cost system to process urban organic wastes. 
There are several solutions already available, but they are seen as too 
expensive. This is an opportunity that is presently available. The issue 
is that R&D work is required to develop such a system.

Best wishes,
David
