This post is disgusting. Don’t read it if you are easily disgussed.
I was watching the Discovery Channel while eating my dinner tonight and they had this show called Dirty Jobs. Out of all, one job came to be interesting to me, and that was making a complete reuse of cow’s poop.
Apparently some farmer and entrepreneur in a town somewhere in Kentucky, makes 100% use off cow’s poop. He has a farm with over 1000 cows and imagining each cow producing 6 pounds of shit every day, you do the math for 1000. What to do with all this shit? Well, he extracts butane gas from them and burns it for heating and cooking and he even sells the leftovers in gas tanks. Secondly, he uses a mechanical butt whole to extract the juice from the shit and uses it to water his crops. I bet the crops feel good about that! And lastly he uses the concentrated dried shit to make plant pots; in addition, his wife works of the flowers that are put in the pot, and together they do wholesale of those plants with the pots made at of the cow’s shit.
As an engineer, putting this whole situation into equations, we get:
Step 1:
g(Cow’s Raw Poop) = Butane Gas + Left Over Shit
g(x) = y is a function of extracting the gas (butane) from the given shit.
Step 2:
f(Left Over Shit) = Concentrated Dried Shit + Shit Juice
f(x) = y is a function of passing fresh shit through a mechanical butt whole which juices it.
Step 3:
p(x) = Plant Pot
p(x) = y is the function of making pots from dried shit.
Adding flowers we have:
Plant Pot + Flowers = Flower Pot
In conclusion, the cow’s poop is conserved in this system. When was the last time you made a good use of your poo?
