Fuel From House Refuse Could Substantially Power Britain
J. A. Priestly, president of the London conference of the Institute of Clearing Superintendents, says Britain’s yearly domestic refuse of about 10 million tons could yield 8 million tons of fuel without reducing 3 to 4 million tons of fertilizer. The fuel content equals roughly one tenth of annual domestic coal use, and its full adoption would offer large national savings despite low calorific value. He adds the method is no longer experimental and could be universally applied except where vested interests block it.
