Just like domestic garbage so-called recycling, it's a scam after
mostly
tax payers money fromn weak govt & quasi govt instrumentalities.
Cost the GDP, jobs & the enviroment dearly, don't fall for it.

Tell that to Butterball, they power a whole factory solely on turkey
innards
and bones.
They use NO electricity from any other source and have surplus power
they
sell back to the local power company.
I'm sure there are many scams out there that promise energy from
waste, but
this isnt one of them.
Joe,
I'm not familiar with that example but certainly wouldn't just accept
their
claims.
If these people take in turkeys & produce processed (lots of steam &
heat??) product out the other end, then try to claim they do it
without
any energy inputs??? indeed say they have excess?? well they
certainly
know how to process investor turkeys that's for su-)
These claims never ever stand up to independant examinations, yes
there
are the rare times when an expensive capital intensive arrangement can
"seem" to get something for nothing, but as with everything else in
life,
that just doesn't happen. Reshuffles are easy but even a small net
gain is very
tricky.
The best that can be expected is a shuffling on costs (economic &
environmental) from one location/payer/class to another.
A bit like how the democrats operate, they rob risk taker hard working
paul to pay lay about liar peter, then try to claim they've increased
the whole:-)
When it happens & I agree it will, then we'll all know about it
because
they'll be a rush to adopt it.

They probably take in live turkeys, and output frozen turkeys in plastic
bags. Can they make enough energy from burning the feet, heads,
feathers, guts? Hard to say.
