One of our favorite systems here at Acorn Land Labs in the HomeBioGas methane digester System. HomeBioGas is a company based in Israel that focuses on creating systems that convert food waste into free energy (methane fuel) and liquid fertilizer. We feed our HomeBioGas system 12 buckets of food scraps every few days.

Acorn OffGrid Course (use code: Acorn50): https://acornlandlabs.com/pages/theo...

Would you like to build freedom and take control of your time through simple, affordable offgrid living systems & methods? We show you how with the Acorn Home concept. It's not for everyone. But freedom still exists for those who are willing to build new skills, use innovative systems and live differently.

This gives us up to 2 hours of clean burning methane fuel for our grilltop burner on the back deck. We could run this burner indoors if we drilled a gas line hole in the wall. We also get a few gallons of nutrient rich liquid fertilizer every few days. We use the liquid fertilizer to grow more produce in our gardens. This system pays for itself in a few years by eliminating our need to purchase propane and by providing us with free fertilizer for the garden.

The HomeBioGas system even has an optional flush toilet. This methane digester is able to process human waste in an offgrid setting. In this case, you would direct the liquids into a wood chip leach field (similar to a septic tank). You should not directly use human waste to fertilize produce for safety reasons.

You can however plant fruit trees, bamboo, comfrey, or berry bushes over the drain field. Anything with woody stems higher off the ground will prevent pathogen contamination from the ground (unlike leafy greens or veggie close to the ground).
We plant to test out the HomeBioGas toilet in our Fall 2023 MicroCabin build.

HomeBioGas makes bigger systems for larger families as well. They even make commercial sized methane digesters for restaurants and hotels.
