A new type of heating! (the oldest in the world)

Present your DIY projects, your new technical ideas, your innovations to test or your self-construction work. Because doing it yourself is often more economical and can be more efficient.

I think it's fair to say that it's a system that uses little or no modern technology. But the interested party will answer it better than us ...

The original title was “a new kind of heating!”. I therefore return the ball to the moderator who had added this precision in brackets in the title ...

I would like to take this opportunity to present to you the dung heating installation as I envision it:

- a metal tank of 50 to 100 liters (cylindrical metallic cumulus hs recovered at the recycling center) from which I will remove the resistance and the insulation envelope, with a small descaling. A priori I will keep the original supply system (cold water inlet connection from the bottom / hot water outlet connection from the top) because the fittings are original, waterproof and standard.

- the tank will be placed vertically and slightly raised (10 to 15 cm) on a support with a geotextile allowing water to pass through (or rain) which will be collected by a waterproof tarpaulin to be poured over the top. (small pumping wind turbine).

Around the tank I will put a frame with a fine mesh to retain the manure and the compost while letting the air pass.
The assembly should have a volume of approximately 2 m3 and will be placed on a pallet with wheels so that the assembly can be moved easily.

There ... Yapluka!

If you have any comments and suggestions for improvements or changes, it's now ...

Here is your system seems well developed in your head it remains only to take action.
Question improvement I suggest you connect your system upstream of your existing hot water production. You will have a preheating or at best a sufficient and autonomous system. if it is the case it will be necessary to provide a shunt of your current heating system to go live. Easy just a piece of hose and a valve.
Good luck.

Hello, the turf as well piled up produces a lot of heat, I know it from experience, by picking up a big pile of grass, the heat which was released even heated a branch which was in this pile while wanting to take it I burned slightly hand and through a leather glove

just that if it had been a metal plate or a bar
despite the glove the burn would have been more serious

so with crowded grass it also heats very well

Yes, Olive 80, the start of the fermentation of the turf is very fast because it contains a lot of nitrogenous matter and water, but it is not very durable because there is not a lot of organic matter; moreover, the pile quickly settles and becomes impermeable to gas exchange: in the absence of sufficient oxygen, it quickly goes into anaerobic mode with the odors that go with it ...

Grelinette, the wire mesh, is surely a good idea, easy to achieve. 2 m3, it seems quite low because the ratio between the volume and the cooling surface (outside) is not very favorable ... to see.

Good evening, 'I even found the blog of mr Wen Roland and a site on permaculture in which he exposes his ideas http://permafroid.blogspot.fr/
http://wenrolland.blogspot.fr/

you can even contact him and who knows maybe the forum will interest him and he may also become a member here on econology

in any case it would be interesting to have someone like him here
