XPRISE CARBON PARTICLE CAPTURE The heat loss from a smokestack can be forced into a large tank containing hot liquid microcrystalline petroleum wax. The heat will keep the wax at a molten state which facilitate the carbon to be absorbed when combined with the wax. Carbon when mixed with wax reacts like a dye. The wax-carbon amalgamation result in a black wax solution thereby making it impossible for the carbon to escape into the environment. Other toxic particles are also captured in the wax settling at the bottom of the wax holding tank forming into a sludge. A sludge release valve is located at the bottom of the tank. After the sludge is removed more wax is replaced in the vessel working something like a toilet. The sludge becomes a byproduct that can be used as an additive to asphalt for roads or used for cocooning nuclear waste materials for long-term safe burial. The entropy of the Earth has been increasing at a startling rate since the beginning of the industrial revolution caused mainly by the carbon that is released into the atmosphere. Government scientists have failed to stop and prevent carbon pollution from entering the environment. This problem can only worsen until a solution is found before this problem becomes irreversible. It has been discovered that formulated wax has been shown to be the only answer to this problem. William Nelson [e-mail]

[@davidwebb9859]

The idea for having an aquarium heater is great. Here is how you avoid cleaning it. Place it i a separate pvc pipe cylinder with antifreeze in it. Seal it off so it will not leak. place it in a uniseal at the lower part of the container. This will work and keep it effective for heating the effluent.

find someone selling a used waterbed and then ask them for just the heater. not a single person buys a used waterbed so you will get the heating mat for free. strap that to the outside of digester with no extra parts and you only have to clean that 0 times in forever. you could possibly use the waterbed as storage as well

[@22Zandy]

I know this is a few years late BUT have you thought about using dry ice against a kind of heat exchanger before the gas goes into the cylinder? Ideally, the gas would cool to near 195K (Dry ice temp) and then when the temperature rose back up to ~20C the pressure in the tank would be about 240PSI (if the initial pressure was 160PSI). It could be a cheap (ish) way to test cooling the gas for higher compression with the existing compressor.

[@alwoolhouse6255]

Watched your 1st gen vid a few times, loved it, and now an update. I'm going to be putting together a similar system next year on an off-grid farm in Spain - you gave me the inspiration to compress the CH4 into a used propane tank. This will be used to top up a solar heated heat sink (multiple 1000 litre insulated IBCs full of water for an UFH system). Thanks for taking the time to inspire us, you're a legend.

How did it come?

[@FBPrepping]

Hello my friend. I´ve been looking for some time about how to do this. The horrendous experience with the authoritarian regime in my country, #Venezuela, has made me to find alternative ways to provide fuel for my modest needs: cooking and fueling my vehicles, an SUV and a motorcycle. After reading some really useful documents I´ve found that moisture needs to be retrieved from the gas (fitting an inline silica gel filter, maybe from a car air conditioning) and a scrubber (an enclosed vessel filled up with steel wool) which will react with the sulfides and sulfates and will avoid the corrosion associated to sulphurs. I´ve not yet built it because of my return was stopped by the Quarantine but I´m going to use your videos as a guide. Thanks for sharing, dude! P.S. PLease people remember this gas explodes. Use your common sense.

Salute! Thank you so much. I've been searching for refilling techniques for quite some time now, finally. Wish you all the best

[@sNEAKYnIGHTmUPPET]

I know that is an older video, but have you considered using a fridge/freezer compressor instead? Uses a fraction of the power to run, and reaches a higher pressure, like 400psi. through a pressure switch on it,, and you could automate it. Also runs much cooler, and the lubrication can be handled by a self built oil accumulator

[@redlew012]

He said in the video you can't go much higher with the pressure because in order to do that you would need liquid nitrogen to cool the gas into liquid. Not practical for at home unless you have a liquid nitrogen. If I understand correctly highly compressed hydrogen is dangerous if it's not in Liquid form

[@glidercoach]

I was thinking that too. You would need a condenser with a fan to cool the compressed gas... like a refrigerator. It should work.

Great video. Just stumbled on your station after brief google search for biogas compression. I have installed several 10m3 biogas plants in Indonesia, and am wanting to diversify the application to more than just stoves. The next step for me is everything you have done. Scrubbing, cleaning, and compression. Seems I am getting stuck on the cleaning/scrubbing step, but your bleach/water tank and steel wool/clay pellets seem to do the trick eh? Where did you learn the bleach/water mixture idea from? Can you explain the flow there? Does the gas bubble up from the bottom? What is the bleach/water ratio? Do you change that out? How often? Awesome video, keep making them!

When we have our propane tank filled at our ranch the driver/operator always unscrews the relief valve on the side of the valve (little screw) when he is filling the bottle.

I have recently started watching your videos and I am impressed! you have such a nice setup. I have 2 questions regarding your system. I hope you answer. 1) How do you stop the gas leakage from the overflow pipes as I don't see any valve around the overflow pipe. 2) How many days would it take to refill this gas bag after it has been empty?

[@OkAtEverything-ProAtNothing]

Hey mate, over flow pipe goes down into the liquid on the inside, stops the gas. As far as filling the bag, depends on temperature, how much feed, what you feed, and how often you feed, optimal conditions I can do the bag in 2 days

nice thank you bro I'll try to do this project well done

[@brockallentaylor]

The electrical consumption surely exceeded the energy in btu from the gas available. Best to just use the gas at low pressure in large bags or else it essentially makes a worthless process. The only way I am aware for this to make any sense is that it was a compressor fueled by the bio gas itself to compress the bio gas. Thats the reason wellhead gas is transported from the wellhead to the refinery by compressors that are run by the very gas they are transporting. Love the experimenting though! Always fun to watch!

[@ibrahimakourouma5839]

[@djalex3333]

Just a thought if methane is lighter than air would it not be beneficial if you turn the bottle upside down when flushing it? That way the methane would stay at the top pushing oxygen out? An easy way to test it would be holding a lighter up until it ignites?

[@dmacosta1]

thank you for the video. Would you please show in detail how you empty the oxygen out of the tank. thank you

[@kazparzyxzpenualt8111]

I think I heard him mention that because he used what was in it, that he knew there was no oxygen inside. I guess as long as the tank valve was closed when the previous gas content stopped having usable pressure there was no chance for oxygen to enter. I do wonder how biogas and residual propane get along though? Is this a non issue? I use a butane long reach lighter for igniting my propane cookstove. Unlit propane often somehow " blows out" the lighter flame. Not sure what is really happening when these two flammable gasses meet.

[@daviddavid9837]

Newby questions. How do you know the tank is full? What pressure is high or dangerous? Is the gas in the tank useable down to a pressure of zero? Does the heat generated by compressing the gas reach any kind of dangerous temperature? How is the "burn time" of that biogas tank you filled compared to propane?

[@bastintripletroubleboys2101]

The safety valves will release at about 250 PSI on a tank that is in good condition. If you have the "swap and go" system near you then you could grab a bottle from there and use the propane then refill it with bio gas, that way you know it also has no air inside the bottle when you fill it up, or you could buy a new bottle on ebay or from a camping store. The 18kg bottles (forklift size) are a good compromise size, easy enough to move around but still hold double the small BBQ bottles

[@nicholasnapier2684]

That’s a good idea using the air compressor like that. I never would’ve thought of that cause you want to compress it but they have one of those things for getting out air conditioning things don’t know if you can use it, but it does the same thing.

Hey mate (sorry I don’t know your name), I love your videos and am currently in the process of building a mini biogas system, using a 20L bucket. This is just to prove to my wife that the system works and it’s worth me building multiple large ones 🤣🤣 (convincing the wife is a process). Do you feel it’s worth compressing the biogas into the cylinders?. I mean, have you had reasonable success doing so?. I was originally excited about compressing biogas, as I’m a plumber and understand how to put these sorts of things together, with little effort. However when i started reading up on methane and found you couldn’t compress it to liquid form without lowering the Temperature to -150 degrees C, it was a bit of a downer. Then i saw your video and thought “I wonder how much he’s actually getting in there?”. So are you compressing that entire air mattress into a 9kg bottle? How long does this take and how much time are you getting out of the compressed gas? You’re just connecting the air intake for the compressor, to the methane filled air mattress, yeah?. I am currently sitting on the thought that I will probably just collect truck tyre tubes and stack them one on top of the other, in some sort of cylinder enclosure. I thought i might use a large container on top of the tubes, which I can fill with water using a valve, to compress the tyre tubes and force out the gas. I can always muck around with the spring in the 2.75kpa LPG regular if needed and bore out the injectors also, using a purpose made hand held boring drill. You get these at gas wholesaler places like BOC, or you can order them online (incase you haven’t heard of these already mate). Anyway, would love to hear your thoughts mate. Love your channel, love what you are doing and am super excited about the advancement to the generator. I shared this video with a couple of mates and dream about the day that I can run the AC at home, on a biogas fuel generator (we need AC here in SE QLD mate). Cheers Chris

@Liam Jamison I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site on google and Im trying it out now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
