Galesburg, Ill. has been using methane gas from their waste treatment plant for MANY years - the gas is piped to stationary engines that pump the effluent from the sewer back up to the treatment tanks at ground level which are fitted with anaerobic covers and collect the methane for the engines and one of those engines turns a generator that powers the complex - I saw this in the '70s when the govt. was giving out grants for 'alternative energy' research and so on (like windmills built by hippies); Galesburg built there own, years before! :shock: Also, there was an engineer in India that went to work for the govt. over there.
