    Bio-gas plant nears completion, promises hope for future

    This compilation of 30 pictures shows the inside of the digester for the bio-gas plant in Kabul, Afghanistan, nearing completion Monday. Buried nearly three feet underground, this chamber is approximately seven feet in diameter and four-feet tall; it will hold the dung/water mixture as it decomposes and releases off methane gas. The mixture will enter the chamber from the pipe at the lower-right of the picture. It will then decompose and put off methane gas that will exit through the pipe at the top of the chamber. After decomposing, the mixture will be a fertilizer and pushed out the passageway on the left as new material is pushed into the chamber.
