The early explorative times of thermal depolymerization not
only considered poultry waste as feedstock, but also various
kinds of fecal matter which apparently still contains some
amount of useful energy-producing material. The way a friend
who I was talking to about this phrased it, in terms of
supplying energy to urban infrastructure, was "take a dump
for New York!"
