Charles, 
The water content of a biogas charge requires to be sufficient to mobilize
the manure content to a slurry, about 1:1 with damp manure. Below this ratio
 the slurry is too thick to move and too much water is a waste of space and
diluted reactivity. The correct ratio reacts to stirring more like a gel
than either a solid or liquid mix, just pourable. 
I believe the process has great benefit beyond just producing gas. It will
reduce waste material handling problems, provide high response, sustainable,
agricultural fertilizers, a means to return carbon to the soil, several
compounds that will absorb and remediate toxic waste and effectively
scavenge oil spilled on water, provide raw feedstock for the carbon fiber
industry and food supply for aquaculture. All from pure excrement. What more
could you want?
Regards,
Peter Allison.
