Muncie Sanitary District Water Pollution Control Facility (WPCF), William E Shirey 5-28-12 (guest) wrote 12 years ago:

Search" Hydrogen Energy Cell "to see apparatus. Using the oxygen from the hydrolysis of water would be like using anaerobic bacteria to help ignite ethanol gasoline and bio diesel fuel with purer O2. Igniting the destructive distillation gases of the rest of the sludge and all of the paper and plastic containers plus yard waste, clippings and fields of corn, soybean fodder or fodder of any kind seems substantial and not radio active nuclear waste but plant nutrients. Contamination??? A combustion manifold the width of a locomotive with small perimeter turbine blades would use any combustion able non acid producing gases. Could be larger using the reverse output of a transmission. Would be fighting global warming with oxygen from water that is not that critical today. A paddle wheel to turn an appropriate size (500 feet? to 800 ft) bicycle type of carbon 60 design generator on a shelf coordinated with rain water and electrolysis of water and to store destructive distillation gases seem productive. You are not taking a chance on radio active waste.
