I'm blown away by the simplicity and creativity, I've been searching for a solution to pressurizing the biogas for the propane appliances at home, the aquarium pump is very affordable as.well as the air mattress, brilliant!
I would attach a moisture collector into the system, pereferably between the aquarium pump outlet and the generator inlet hose so that I can remove the moisture of the gas being used by the generator. Its a simple solution but it will prolong the life of your sparkplugs.
My friend that is absolutely awesome! It’s nice that we can run things on multiple levels. Biogas is absolutely priceless especially if you have a farm in lots of ways to create Biogas. The filtration system for Biogas is actually quite simple and allows you to use it for cooking and basically to work in any type of motor with the proper adapter like what you have in that generator. Absolutely appreciate the video very much look forward to seeing any new developments. Could you possibly do a video showing how to compress biogas into cylinders Like you do with propane that would be absolutely cool. Thank you my friend!
Just a note if you could get a dc pump you could use the battery charging facility that this generator probably has to charge a battery that then powers the pump and then the generator comes on it recharges the battery also don’t recommend people run combustion engines inside doesn’t matter what they burn it should never be done no matter the fuel other than that cool video
I think that's a really good idea using the battery to run the pump here at my house I have a 2500 gallon water tank behind my house I have a farm I have an on demand pump under the house and solar panel and a Marine deep cycle battery hook to it and the water line is hooked into at the water heater if the well goes out or if the power goes out which it has a couple of times couple problems the last one was a lightning strike to the wire had to run $700 worth of number 10 it's way out away from my house it's very handy it produces 60 PSI and it only runs when something's turned on in the house you can take showers and run the washing machine
Very nice demonstration, sir. Keeping it simple for the general CZcams audience. I would however emphasize safety and explosion hazards, but not to shy people away from this wonderful alternative fuel.
Truthfully any gas has explosion hazards however the way this guy is doing it it’s actually pretty safe there’s a lot of guys out there trying to pressurize cylinders with this bio gas and there has been explosions happening sometimes because they’re not using the right compressors. The compressors gets hot then you can imagine what happens next ,,,this here is a kiss method and anyone with Horse sense should be able to do this you can use brickage/weight on the gas envelope in this case an air mattress and run a simple burner for a stove and a lot of other things his aquarium pump idea creates a positive gas flow to run a generator long enough to do key essentials in an off grid or grid down situation well pump charge a battery bank etc.
Just out of curiosity once , I turned off the gasoline to my generator , ran a small hose from the pressure regulator on a tank of Propane to the mouth of the carburetor . Started and ran just fine !
We have used the czcams.com/users/postUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!
Gasoline gets old unless additives like Stabil. Solar power for aquarium pump? Consider a hot water loop with aquarium pump (again, solar powered) with an antifreeze solution to heat digester to 100-110 degrees F, but need tank thermostat.
Was looking for part 2 of the conversion vid and came across this one but was not disappointed with the info shared. I am interested to know if this type of setup could be used to permanently live off-grid? Also, I always thought methane was super combustible and dangerous but to see how it is used here I can't believe we are all paying for propane and natural gas to heat our homes. What are the safety concerns involved with using methane?
Why do office buildings not use this on a large scale? Im even thinking about hooking up the biodigester to a large gas stove, to boil steam for a steam turbine. It seems pretty doable for small offices
Love it..I would appreciate knowing more about the 'snorkel' allowing the engine to switch between fuels. where can you get them? Could a person make one?
US carburetor/carburetion sells the motor snorkel kit google US carburetor/carburetion and/or motor snorkel kit however yes you can make a rudimentary fuel delivery system for almost any combustion engine it’s best if it has a petcock valve start it on gasoline warm it up turn the gasoline off and when the engine starts dying out turn on the methane gas or whatever and have a small piece of tubing/heat resistant hose going into the carburetor it may even work going into the air filter area however I’m not sure about the air filter area. I had an old McCullough 5500 W generator years ago it was big yellow generator and there was a diaphragm type deal that went on top of the engine and the carburetor mounted to that I believe it was some type of fiberglass and I very carefully drilled through that diaphragm and inserted copper tubing the same kind of copper tubing they use for icemakers for refrigerators and sealed it with JB Weld. I angled the copper tubing just right toward carburetor opening so it would deliver fuel into the running engine and keep it going I could run that engine on just about anything natural gas propane biogas we even made fuel by using mothballs one time and the engine would suck the gas it produced right out of the container and ran on that for a bit. I suppose you could probably use what they call wood gas also how ever we never tried that . US carburetor would probably be the safer way however in an emergency you get an engine going on a little bit of gasoline and then turn the fuel valve off if you have any kind of a hose going into the opening of that carburetor and it’ll run on just about anything that’s flammable within reason. if you can’t start a generator in an emergency on gasoline first then use a cordless drill and a socket and try and rotate the engine that way until it starts on biogas or whatever you have on hand just make sure you’re turning the engine in the right direction so you don’t ruin it.

Please what is that device you said works with, petrol, gasoline and in our case biogas.... you said it cost $200..what is this device call did hear you well please
I would estimate 600dm3 biogas = 3dm3 diesel. The generator probably runs at 2-4dm3 diesel/hour under a low load. You get 45 minutes if not pushing the engine too hard?
The $64,000 questions are. How big is your biodigester how much do you feed it how much gas does it produce in 24-hours And how long will that run the generator for? Thanks
@@selectedsolutions Definitely wondering about this as well. I remember something like a 1/1 ratio where 1 cubic meter of compost/solution should make about 1 cubic meter of biogas. That can create up to 2.5kwh of energy. I feel that this is a bit off though.
No. Natural gas realases methane and carbon monoxide into the atmosphere, amongst other hideous nitrates. Biogas is methane which when burnt into a oxygen rich environment releases carbon dioxide and water vapour. It's not toxic.
natural gas from the grid or bottle is usually high purity methane >97%. Biogas usually contains ~40% carbon dioxide ~60% methane so requires larger bore injectors for a cooker or BBQ and different carburation for an engine. There is also a small amount of hydrogen sulphide ~1% which creates sulphuric acid when it comes into contact with water so can cause long term problems with equipment if not removed.
@@nialbell8301 Methane is an explosive gas. Explosives unless trying to be initiated, are kept away from heat, shock, or friction. There is air outside of the pump, the pump is producing both heat and friction, and as it isn't rated for explosive gas's suggests there might be concern. I don't think that the fire triangle has much of anything to do with the safety of the pump as it does the outcome if it leaks.
put the biogas threw a scrubber saw a guy make on his channel part 1 czcams.com/video/jq2Whcvm2EU/video.html part 2 czcams.com/video/EJi9JunrSLY/video.html handy to take out the CO2 and the hydrogen sulfide thay can ruin the engine
you could use your dog poop to make biogas and then turn that to electricity to power an electric vehicle. 😂 tell people your car is powered by “dog shit” or even better find a bull and then you have a bull shit powered car 🤠😆 some people say electric cars are BS and then you can say literally! 😂
Internal combustion engine is not the best to get energy out of biogas I’ve seen Radial steam engine that would work much better and less complicated to get electricity
That was pretty well presented sir. I wonder, are you scrubbing your gas? I'm thinking not as you mentioned the wetness of the fuel which makes me think that you are going to make short work of killing that generator with the H2S. uscarburetion may very well have the worst website on planet earth. Although I can't vouch for their slightly higher priced products because I've never dealt with them, centuryfuelproducts has a much better website.

Maybe you should filter the gas? I thought raw biogas has hydrogen choride or something in it that smells like rotten eggs?
He probably is filtering it before the mattress. It's hydrogen sulfide and you filter it through steel wool (the really fine stuff) to get rid of it.
Runing hour time
put the biogas threw a scrubber saw a guy make on his channel part 1 czcams.com/video/jq2Whcvm2EU/video.html part 2 czcams.com/video/EJi9JunrSLY/video.html handy to take out the CO2 and the hydrogen sulfide thay can ruin the engine
you could use your dog poop to make biogas and then turn that to electricity to power an electric vehicle. 😂 tell people your car is powered by “dog shit” or even better find a bull and then you have a bull shit powered car 🤠😆 some people say electric cars are BS and then you can say literally! 😂

Is this a big scam.?
Internal combustion engine is not the best to get energy out of biogas I’ve seen Radial steam engine that would work much better and less complicated to get electricity
That may be true but where the heck am I going to buy one of those?! I can get a generator at harbor freight
@@RandyRandersonthefamous there is a company that makes them here in the US cyclone power technologies

@@juanlugo7492 company appears out of business. No way to buy. Seems scammy
I wanted to see it operate under load...bummer!
When the new generation will have cows just for they dung. 🤔
That was pretty well presented sir. I wonder, are you scrubbing your gas? I'm thinking not as you mentioned the wetness of the fuel which makes me think that you are going to make short work of killing that generator with the H2S. uscarburetion may very well have the worst website on planet earth. Although I can't vouch for their slightly higher priced products because I've never dealt with them, centuryfuelproducts has a much better website.
How long would a queen size mattress last on this generator?
