Everyone whos ever grilled has what they consider to be the best way to barbecue. Some say gas is the best, while others point to charcoal as the betteroption. Its a debate thatlllikelycontinue for generations and generations. <\/p>\n
Based on whats happening out in Kenya, the charcoal side might have just gained some steam in the argument in the most unexpected way possible. What theyre doing is quite literally the shit. <\/p>\n
According to a video published by the New York Post, human feces is being converted into charcoal, and the results are positive both for the community and environment. <\/p>\n
As it turns out,human crap has a lot more advantages than just clearing a room. Feces has shown to burn longer than firewood or your typical bag of charcoal. It also apparently creates less smoke and surprise, surprise has NO SMELL. Bet you didnt see that coming, huh? <\/p>\n
Sadly, only 27 percent of people in Nakaru, Kenya have access tosewer systems. Its a problem that is being flipped into opportunity because the sludge from the area is being collected and transformed into charcoal briquettes. The process includes drying out the poop, heating it, then mixing it with molasses and sawdust for binding. <\/p>\n
As a result of all this, charcoal poop has turned into cash-money. Roughly one kilo of briquettes is worth 50 cents. Based on projected goals, they hope to produce ten tons a monthby the end of 2017, eventually moving to ten tons a day when they have the right equipment. Thistranslates to $4,500 per ten tons, a good amount of money for the largely poor villagers in the area. <\/p>\n
So as you can see, human crap isnt so bad after all.Remember that the next time you blow up the bathroom. <\/p>\n
