Energy making compost bins

Home Bio Gas https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LB2Jkyb62dk Thanks to my fellow ambassadors, I've read interesting reports on wi-fi attached bins and bins which induce waste in oceans. Now, I want to introduce another interesting bin which turns waste into energy. It is called, 'HomeBioGas'. The bin produces home-usable biogas from food waste and animal manure. It reduces in-door air pollution, deforestation, and ground water contamination. The product comes with lots of environmental benefitshowever, it is sold at $995~$1,500 US dollars. The bin has gained attention from many news media and world celebrities supporting eco-issues. The company says now they are looking for the markets in developing countries as well. Check it out! :) Huffington Post article: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/new-system-lets-you-turn-leftovers-into-cooking-gas-fertilizer_us_56854f47e4b0b958f65b871f

These kinds of bins are, presumably, for marketing purposes, i think. But i wish we'll see these bins more often in the streets in the future. thanks for writing and yeah just like the other comments, more explanation would be even more helpful :D

Alberta, changing waste into energy is a marvelous idea. But if there were further explanation about how it actually works(more than posting the link), it may be more readable to more ambassadors. Also, more information such as expected cost could be helpful as well. Thanks for sharing!

According to the developer's website, from my perspective, the initial purchasing price is high.Newley developed technology needs time to have cost adjusted, I guess..

Nice idea, I hope the technology is not very expensive.

Biogas bins or biogas plants and compost bins are one of the most sustainable ways to recycle(or rather upcycle) organic waste to get energy or compost(manure). We have 2 compost bins in our school. Students put left over food or any fruit peels, used tea bags, etc into this bin which uses these as raw material to convert to compost which is then used for our school vegetable garden. We term it as 'Garbage to Garden'.
I had made a working model on Biogas plant and had won as 'Best project' in various exhibitions and Science Fairs. I feel it has immense potential and there should be more and more large scale biogas plants to get rid of organic waste and meet energy demands by biogas.
Thanks for the post.
