This is great - so many farmers have been doing this over the years, it's nice to see that it's going to go the next level.

I buy pots for my plants called "poo pots" out of california. Since they're made out of cow manure, they biodegrade in the soil with extra nutrients for the plants. Their entire facility is powered by manure, even their ovens. Really a green company, but nice to see a data center going there too.

Hello friends,

I got some idea about that process.really its useful one.as the process works by using the heat generated by the data center to increase the efficiency of anaerobic digestion of animal waste. The digester produces methane, which can be used to generate electricity for the data center. Modern data centers do require a large amount of power, not only to keep the servers running, but also keeping them cool and generating renewable energy for the same could better the eco-credentials of data centers.
