Solar C³ities works around the globe "connecting community catalysts integrating technologies for industrial ecology solutions". We run our own projects and we work on other organization's projects, creating synergies and shepherding symbiosis. We specialize in the nexus between Natural and Industrial Ecology, looking for ever more productive co-evolving relationships between Microbes, Plants, Animals (human and non-human) Fungi, Protzoa and Geophysical Processes.
Envisaj Mercy, the Mercy College Environmental Sustainability and Justice League Biogas team traveled with Culhane to Lancaster Pennsylvania to build a backyard biogas system at the home of the Kelseys from Juice Plus.
Home scale biogas at home. This is where it all began for Solar CITIES co-founder T.H. Culhane when he built his own household biodigester on the family porch in Essen after returning from his first visit to India in January 2009 where he learned about the ARTI India system. Today the Culhane has three biodigesters on the porch -- one ARTI style made from a 500 liter and a 300 liter water barrel and two 1000 liter IBC systems that Culhane innovated himself.
This is where it all began for us, building ARTI style digestors in the impoverished areas of Darb Al Ahmar and Manshiyet Nasser in Cairo, Egypt in early 2009

Question
Firstly thank you for sharing your valuable experiences. In Iran, there is a very low familiarity with biogas. In contrast, I am very interested and established a biogas laboratory in our department. The question I have is about that blue bag used for biogas storage. We do not have such this in our country. at least, not introduced for biogas. I wonder what is its material, what kind of material could be used alternatively?
Any guidance in this regard would be highly appreciated.
