  Hello Li,
  I don't want to discouraged you but this is not a well developed field.
Litter gasification is something I have worked on some, though the project
is on hold due to a lack of funding. www.lostriverfarms.com  Gasification or
pyrolysis is a good option though I would not rule out digestion.  One of
the main drawbacks to digestion is the lack of methagans in the litter.  At
Lost River Farms we successfully produced burnable gas (however somewhat low
btu content) that could be used in a boiler.  The key is automation of the
perimeters that produces this gas as it is not cost effective for most
farmers to hire someone to run the process.  Because this process is
somewhat complex it appears that the few companies that have worked on these
projects end up scaleing their units fairly large so as to bring in litter
from surrounding farms rather than developing their units for individual
farm use.

    Hi list members,

    Concerning manure, I was contacted by a farmer recently who wanted to
treat his chicken manure.

    He have chicken manure (only manure, no bed material) with a moiture of
13%m (drying is done directly by the heat given by chicken...it seems that
this heat will be lost if it is not used to dry chicken manure).

    This manure can not be used in a biogas plant due to its low moisture
content.

    Actually, in France, manure gasification or incineration should meet the
requirement of MSW incineration.

    I am looking for manure thermal treaters, but it seems that though some
companies claimed on their website that their technologies could gasify or
burn manure, when I contact them, they say they are not focus on this issue.

      Benjamin,



      Thanks. Biogas is a great route for manure. Thermal gasification of
manure has always been a challenge.
