[Digestion] Feedstock about ARTI compact biogas digester

[Han Haitao]

Hello Jaime,

The real situation is that the urban areas have different levels of
urbanization.
In some under-urbanization areas, like towns,  people live in the own house,
which generally have gardens.
In some post-urbanization areas, like small cites, people live in the
apartment, which share small public ground.
Rural resident have feedstock problem, but urban resident have space
problem.

For example, I'm in China and live in an apartment.
Personally, I would like to build my family an ARTI digester very much,
however It's not quite possible.
The public  would  definitely not allow me to set up such equipment.
It's not just the smell problem,  but also a big space occupation,
not to mention the potential safety problem because of public access to the
equipment.

BTW: Another annoying problem of ARTI digester is that you have to boil the
feedstock
for better biogas productivity. I don't beleive many urban resident would
like to deal with that slurry.
