Methan from Household Waste

Methane is a chemical compound that can be extracted from household waste. The process to extract methane starts with mixing the waste with water and stores it into the warming bed. When it reaches a certain temperature, methane will separate it self from the other compound of waste. While the waste can be use as a fertilizer, methane is transferred into the dirt trap. Here, a cap under the methane is open periodically so that the dirt that is still in the methane can be discarded. After the methane is clean of dirt, it is than piped into a Gas Indicator Unit. Here, the methane is mixed with water. When the gas indicator reaches a certain temperature and pressure, methane develops into gas. (The bubbles in water indicate that there is gas). When the gas rises it is then piped into the gas holder. Here the methane is stored for further use. When ever needed the methane can be used by just opening the holder’s tap.
