Time for a new cleaner

Postby lloyd430 » Wed Aug 31, 2005 10:11 pm

Well today gas hit a record high of $3.10 a gallon- kero is up there too, it looks like I'll be going back to the nonrenewable resourses thier cheaper to clean parts with. Ones thing is for sure my cub gets better gas that my brother's 3616 backhoe (22 gallons lasts 8 hours). Maybe the elctric cub isn't that bad, or the wind one for that matter, or how about is we could harness the hydrogen that we are making in our bubbles tanks!!!

Methane. That's the little bubbles in the tub. Also combustable. PETA's position several years ago was that we had to many cows emiting methane, destroying the atmosphere. If we could harvest all of the methane wasted on a daily basis we could solve the energy - gas - problem.

Just picking a fight.

Actually we have local dumps that are producing electric by burning the mathane coming out tfrom the dump!!! It seems like more places should be doing this!

At the huge dump on Staten Island they have two plants recovering methane, cleaning it and putting it in to the local distrutation network. Claim it is enough for 30,00 homes.

Went from 2.65 to 3.19 in 12 hours.

If its not broken wait till I touch it.
