   I'll be excited if I get anything at all. It's just an initial, uninformed   
   proof of concept type of thing for me at this point, and I'm only doing it   
   because it's so simple and yet so fun--electricity from poop! Mostly, I'm   
   doing it for the compost and    
   the need to get rid of my waste. The methane too is just for fun, though I   
   hear there are off-grid houses that get all their cooking fuel from their   
   methane producing compost pile. Some people also harvest the heat and get 140   
   degree water.   
      
   As for the pumps, zero. It'll be gravity fed. Approximately the same amount of   
   fertilizer (4-6 weeks of fermentation) comes out the other end when new black   
   water from the trailer enters the input. Do it right, and it's safe for using   
   on food crops, but    
   I wouldn't do it with this prototype since I'm not planning to carefully   
   monitor the carbon nitrogen ratio, the temperature, etc. Good for flowers,   
   though.
