This is very clever. I’m going to think about putting something like that in at my house- I’m not convinced that it’s a good idea yet, but I’m getting there! Thank you so much for showing your system in this much detail.

How is the gas contained? Is it just within that domed part that was tarred? Or are you compressing it into a tank for something, how about posting some full diagrams or your digester.

I love the info you have provided. Have you measured your production? For example, I shoveled 5 loads of poo and it produced me X number of pounds of gas.
Very interested in your production level. I would be great to produce this gas for a gas generator to power electricity for the home when service is down.

Is That water that over flows out of tank have fertilizer properties to it. Like for a fertilizer spray on vegetable gardens?

Could you use human waste for this? And also, this may be a stupid question but, do you smell anything inside the house (i.e., pony poop, rotten egg smell)?

@gabyrig I dont think you would want to use human manure or humanure because if you planned to use the slurry for garden purposes human feces carries to many bad pathogens,I could see this working for just about any farm animal though, pigs especially

right before your filter,you had a pressure regulator right? how many pounds of gas was it showing?i didnt catch the dimensions of your underground tank, I know you said 2 foot but 2 foot by what?or was that just the head space for the gas under there?I really like this video and am more into the design of this whole process
