    I learned about this a few years ago.
    Its amazing how bacteria create heat from compost.
    So many possibilities for this.

    This is great, but I thought the Jean Pain method focused on collecting methane with compost being a byproduct? Kudos for getting it done 👍

      The Jean pain method was an integrated protect to make the management of the marquise economical sound to prevent wildfires. The result was a system that prevents wildfires, made no watering gardening possible in a place where it shouldn't be possible, produced heat for heating and warm water for 18 months or so and lastly biogas for cooking and use as fuel for the vehicles used to extract the brush from the marquise

    I like the fact of the specs, detailed explanation. Thank you.
    I'm interested in solar panels, but I don't know much, maybe you can make a video about it (or you can redirect me to videos)!
    A cool explanation on electronic components and electronic basics would be great and appreciated.
    How to calculate how much energy I need (how is energy calculated, in kW/h and what does this mean)?
    The size of the panel?
    The optimal orientation?
    Battery stack for storing energy?
    (Other things that I don't know)
    This for little systems (backyard aquaponics) or houses.
    Thank you again, and I was really surprised of your channel, keep it going this is really interesting!

      thanks mate. sizing solar can be bit tricky buisness, specially if you live OffGrid. we have some basic guides on our website for that -> offgridenclave.com/content/solar/ .

Latitude and average number of days of sunlight per year need to go into calculations. Moving from Colorado to cloudier place is going to wreck all my assumptions about solar.

    1. Have you tried creating natural gas with compost, and burning it in generator for free electricity?
    2. How big a pile id need to power and heat a house with compost electricity?
    3. Have you tried composting whole trees?

    • @OffGridEnclave

      1.) one can utilize the compost heat and add a biogas chamber. personally most my electricity is covered with solar.
      2.) "house" is very relative, many factors involved, depends on size of house, your power needs, clima, etc.
      3) no

    Put the coil at the top, with a roof, to capture more heat.
    Or why not put the compost next to the home, or underneath, & eliminate the pipes & pump?

    • @OffGridEnclave
      @OffGridEnclave  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      that is about the plan, there will be a semi isolated building with a roof to house the compost, very close to the Main building to eliminate heat loss thru the pipes and such, see part#2 th-cam.com/video/8X6Jzqv-ymQ/w-d-xo.html

      Dirt, you missed a lot. I recommend watching the video again.
      Coils cycling the water are placed in layers. Otherwise you'd have heat for a few minutes before you've exhausted it. Using a manifold connected to several coils allows the system to select and draw from one set (layer) of coils while the the previous set is allowed to regeneration. Pulling all of the available heat will slow and eventually retard the decomposition all together and/or excess methane and/or carbon dioxide. You'll end up with a cold pile of mush covered in potentially deadly mold producing excessive harmful gas. One simply can't cap a compost due to the potential build up heat of methane and carbon dioxide. The compost mixture must be precise to avoid: excessive heat causing a fire, excessive deadly and explosive gas emissions, or total failure to decompose leading to harmful to ingest and/or aspirate mold growth.
      These type of projects, while seemingly harmless, can be dangerous if built to the scale of this system. YT is full of these types of projects whereby someone has enclosed their composting inside of a small greenhouse. One must be mindful of unintended consequences if the formula is off. Thanks to the plethora and unprecedented access to free information from knowledgeable individuals, groups, businesses, and professionals only the foolish are at risk of causing harm. One would hope nobody is stupid enough to cycle the hot humid gas and mildew/mold spore filled untreated air from a greenhouse full of compost directly into living space. However this does happen. The ignorant, lazy, and foolish are their own worst enemy.
      Cheers!

      You certainly can. I think Enclave took your question to mean "Would HE cover it?"
      I'll have to drill deeper into exactly how he's marrying the compost heat to the existing heat. I don't quite understand the heat exchanger.
      I'm in the first home I ever had that uses warm water heat. I can see integrating this directly with a warm-water heating system, at least in a general way. When the compost wasn't enough, it would still give the boiler (which never gets boiling hot) a real head-start to get to operating temperature. I think the advantage to steam heat is you don't need an electric pump to move the steam around. It moves itself, and the liquid condensate returns to the basement by gravity. But it's nice to be able to touch the baseboard radiator without burning yourself.
