How to build the Digester The Bio Gas plant can be built by local tradesmen or by newly skilled women for peoples homes as a source of fuel for gas stoves, or other gas fueld appliances. The bio gas plant works by mixin animal waste with water and then transfering this mix to a domed space called a digester. Here the mix breaks down and in the process releases gas. That is captured in the top of the dome and directed into a pipe to where it is needed. This is controlled with a simple valve. The material after is has released gas is then able to be used as a fertiliser which can improve yeilds in personal farms or be sold for profit. What is needed to build the plant is kiln fired bricks, cement, mortar, pvc pipe for the inlet and a metal pipe for the gas outlet.
