Closed Loop Water System with Integrated Biogas Capture

I propose to build a simple proof of concept system which simultaneously solves many problems associated with water use sustainability. Key Problems With Current Strategies Essentially all municipal sewage systems around the world are still using the prehistoric systems pioneered in the indus valley civilization over 6,000 years ago. We take fresh water, use and… Continue reading Closed Loop Water System with Integrated Biogas Capture

Imagine I have… Continue reading OurSpace: Distributed Serverless Anti-Hierarchical Social Media
