GAS-L: gasification of chicken litter

[Tom Miles <tmiles@teleport.com>]

Forwarded to the list forTom Crenshaw.

Dear sir: I am currently building 6 broiler houses here in Alabama.My 
father has been growing chickens for about 30 years.Consequently,all of our 
available land is saturated with potash , far above Alabama Department of 
Environmental Management(ADEM)guidelines..We use some as cattle feed,some 
for composting but that's only a small part of our = production..Many want 
to put out litter as fertilizer but,according to ADEM regulations I am 
responsible for the safe transportation, storage and application..No one 
wants to pay an amount that even covers my expense.... I am currently 
looking for another disposal method..

I found your site on the internet but was UN able to link up..I would 
appreciate any information you may have on gasification of litter.The local 
county agent has checked with Auburn University about gasification but no 
one knew anything..I am looking forward to hear from you..

Respectfully Tom = Crenshaw
