Young Australia Magpies Foraging (gymnorhina tibicen)
After working on an excavation site, I enjoyed the company of a pair of young magpies who settled on the site, scratching around and foraging for pasture cockchafers.

    4:29. Jean is not concerned with removing 'things that can rot', he is interested in removing things which can burn. When the fuel hazards are removed, or pulverised and left spread in situ, the forest is not likely to burn. This practice is excellent for the forest, our air quality, and in general everything else. In other words, removing the fuel results in more wood in the forest, not less, as fire mercilessly destroys everything, and does very serious 'collateral' damage also. 5:45 - 'You can get more energy from the wood than burning it.' Yes, far more, more than ten times as much in fact,

      All decomposition produces greenhouse gases. The question is whether utility is gained or not. In Jean Pain’s case, he harvested forest brush that might otherwise have burned (off gassing but with no usefulness) or naturally decomposed (off gassing but with no usefulness). By intercepting the decomposition process and harvesting the gas he put it to use where otherwise it would be wasted. It would have been produced regardless, one way or the other. The KEY is that he is using gas that ISN’T a fossil fuel - I.e. one that is stable and locked up in earth.

      Burning the gas is the key. Methane has only one carbon atom making it the cleanest of all the carbon-based fuels. Your natural gas is mostly methane. Methane exhaust gasses do not rob ozone in any way. The biggest ozone destroyers are nitrogen oxide compounds, which are produced by the millions of tons in jet exhaust.

    interesting that so many comments say this is not appropriate for x, y or z... Jean Pain was primarily a forester - intent on reducing fire fuel load within the forest he managed, the big team of people working were primarily there for that purpose; the heat, methane and compost were a beneficial byproduct of these efforts. Otherwise, the cleared material would have been burned or chipped or just oxidized getting compost from it after getting heat and power is a great outcome... By looking at the recourses he had at hand he came up with a system that used those resources and worked for him... We each need to come up with systems that work for us... for some of us, this system might well work.

    Obviously this is pretty cool and all that stuff but you need to have a good amount of time and effort to dedicate to achieving this result which may or may not happen depending on what you use . Mr Paine had a small army of volunteers for building this heap and he had all the proper tools to complete this project . Size is key to success or failure . A good size for a biomeiller system is 20X20 and at least 8 to 12 ft deep which if done right will last several months . I see great promise for biomass energy production using waste products on an industrial scale .

    Soil scientist here : the composting hosts nitrogen fixing bacteria that feed on the sugars of cellulose and organic salts. These nitrogen fixers draw nitrogen from the air, and turn it into amino acids and other organic nitrogen compounds! The leftover organic matter is rich in lignin and other difficult to degrade compounds which are foraged by mushrooms, thus providing a durable material with excellent water holding capacity, insulation and slow decomposition to release minerals, and excellent soil structure for roots, irrigation and nutrient retention from leaching. Also, the mushroom digesting the wood compost turn the mineral soil into smaller and available salts for the whole rhizosphere, such as the precious phosphates, and in turn effectively builds soil from bedrock.

      Just to add to his, I'm studying horticulture and this is exactly what we are learning in relation to soil. I'll take it one step further to say that dark Organic compounds or Humus behaves much like clay soil particles, they are negatively charged so attract positively charged ions within the soil. So ammonium, potassium, calcium etc. which are positively charged, will all be attracted to the dark organic compounds which means plants have a steady supply of nutrients but this positive/negative relationship also helps prevents leaching.

    @HomeDistiller You have a point. This obviously will not work for you. Many people own 80 hectares of land or more. They may already sell logs. Limbs and brush are a waste product of logging. This process allows additional profit while logging sustainably. If my math is right 9,000L oil is equal to 2,380Gal. oil. When logging 10 hectares of forest per year; 10,000 Gallons of oil is a nice boost in profit worth about 35K. Also consider the tonnage of brush cities and towns collect per year.

    I don't agree with some of the negative remarks but agree that it would take effort for it to take place in a city setting. Our city uses brushed off limbs from around power lines, downed trees & so forth as mulch around city trees. However just as we should be growing permaculture in waste areas of cities we could grow, fast growing willows from cuttings as example. More efficient methods of harvest could be used by cities. Even turning off 1000 lights helps.

  • @benjamindees
    @benjamindees 13 років тому

    @HotSauceJohnny First, you missed the statement that it takes 8 years for just one hectare of forest to generate that much brush. So you only need about 8 hectare (20 acres) for a continuous harvest. You also appear to be missing the fact that fuel was not the only product. Hot water and compost were also produced.

  • @HotSauceJohnny
    @HotSauceJohnny 13 років тому

    I was originally impressed by this, but now think of it as more of an experiment. The math doesn't work. First, It took so many people to build this system for a house for two people. Then, 500 liters of fuel = 132 gallons of gasoline. A very efficient home can use the equivalent of that for hot water and propane/natural gas. The system yields 18 months of fuel and hot water , but the narrator said that it takes 8 years for a forest to regenerate the 40 tons of wood. Am I missing something?

    • @zazugee
      @zazugee 6 років тому

      Yes, you're missing that jean was working as forest guard who was responsible for clearing forests from dense brushs that cause forest fire, he was restricted in the amount of biomass he can take from a single hectare. According to research, a forest produce 10T/H/year of biomass in total, not account for losses due to biodegradation of biomass in soils and it's taking into account total living wood. means if you extract the 10Ton/H each year, the forest will not grow and will be stagnant. So, jean was extracting half the maxium sustainable amount. In damp forests the humid conditions makes so that that excess biomass is degraded or go in subsoil. But in relatively dry climates, the biomass dry an become subject to forest fires that unfortunately kills even the living trees. that 10T/H/Year means 1Kg/m2/year and is 13wh/day. I think it's enough for a small family to be totally autonomous. But it all depends on efficiency of the use of that raw energy.
