Adopt-a-Biodigestor
Help improve the lives of people in rural Mexico by adopting a biodigestor, a system that converts organic waste into a methane gas mixture which can be used for cooking, heating, and generating electricity. Through the International Renewable Resources Institute (IRRI) and SEI you can provide a custom installed biodigester for a family in rural Mexico. These systems receive manure and agricultural waste from small family farms and convert it into a high quality soil amendment, while producing methane gas. In many cases it can provide enough gas for all of a family's cooking and heating energy needs.
A full digestor costs $1000. Any size donation is welcome, but people donating $500 or more receive an IRRI Mexico Biodigester Manual, photos of the construction process and biodigester you helped install, and a certificate for your participation in the program.

Could a Biodigester Work for You?
IRRI-Mexico also provides full consulting and installation services. Most commercial farms, regardless of size, can realize significant economic benefits from biodigester technology, often recovering costs within the first year of operation. In addition, biodigesters provide needed odor control, waste management, and can improve the overall function of any agricultural operation. Ideal for those raising pigs, poultry, or cattle, biogas can provide needed heating, electrical generation, and can even power farm equipment. We have access to all the necessary materials and equipment to convert your waste managment process into an energy generator. For more information contact IRRI-Mexico at info@irrimexico.org
