Answer to Question 1

T

Answer to Question 2

First, the liquefied manure is piped into another storing facility like a silo. Once in the silo, the manure is heated to around one hundred degrees Fahrenheit, when the natural bacteria present in the manure begins to create methane gas. As the bacteria begin to break down the manure, the methane gas escapes to the top of the liquid and is then siphoned into a holding tank. The gas is then used to power a generator that produces electricity.
