Bioprocessor
Wouldn’t it be great if there was a system that could sustainably generate fuels, replenish our damaged soils, reclaim water and grow nutritious food, all at the same time? In fact, it already exists and it’s called the Green Power House, featured in the excellent documentary The Need to Grow. Inventor Michael Smith has created a zero waste, zero emission bioprocessor that mimics (but crucially speeds up) nature’s processes, by turning biomass (like agricultural waste) into biochar, which is combined with rapidly grown algae to create organic fertiliser and biofuels that can power 100 homes. Let’s just do it.
