[Digestion] flex-use bio gas plant

G'day All,

I must be getting cynical in my old age, but suggest that with schemes
to compress NG and purify biogas the company be called "Nett Energy
Systems?". Biogas should be used directly if possible, as compression is
a waste of energy (unless the expansion is harnesses as a source of
cold!)

It would probably be far easier (and MUCH more acceptable to neighbours,
of the central plant anyway!) to put the digesters on farm and pipe the
gas to the school.

Happy digesting,
HOOROO

NESI also can produce ultra-pure hydrogen from the digester gas. NESI has a beta site on a dairy farm near Cornell Univ.
