You’re stuck in the past, man. It’s 2022. They should use it to generate green energy.
I’ll leave it to others to figure out how. I’m just the big ideas guy.
I can’t tell if you’re joking, but there are actually companies that can install a system that dehydrates the “manure”, then burns it to produce electricity, with the heat from the burning being used to dehydrate the next batch, all automatically. I’ve only seen them used on large-scale cattle operations, but they should work for municipal sewage just as well.
Or, there was a machine invented back in the 90’s that could take any hydrocarbon, including sewage, and turn it into high-grade crude oil. The inventor was bad at running a business, so the company went under and I don’t know who holds the patent now. But one of my research projects back in college was to write up a proposal to have this system incorporated into existing sewage-treatment facilities at the city I lived in. I don’t have the exact numbers anymore, it’s been a few years, but I do remember that the amount of crude oil it would produce was impressive, and that it would eliminate the problem of pharmaceuticals getting into the lakes via the sewage system.
