Hello BESTers,

 Here's a little tidbit from Sri Lanka.  A local man has developed a small-scale portable digester to handle a household's food waste.  It can treat about 2 kilograms per day and is about the size of a small refrigerator.  Small-scale digesters are ideal for all types of situation from a rural family living off-the-grid to a small farmer producing fertilizer and energy from waste to a restaurant saving money on waste disposal.  Everyone can benefit from small-scale, food waste digestion.

Have a great weekend,
Ryan
