| IMUS Beefs Up Power Grid and Reduces Emissions
In a pilot project using technology developed by a research team led by the Alberta Research Council and Highland, the manure from 7500 head of cattle is producing slightly less than one megawatt of electricity – enough power to service the requirements of the feedlot, in addition to a farming community of about 2000 people. The technology, known as Integrated Manure Utilization System (IMUS), turns manure into energy, bio-based fertilizers and reusable water while reducing greenhouse gas emissions, odours and other environmental impacts associated with outdoor feedlots. For more information, check out the Growing Power website.
