I run a school in West Africa with an enrollment of 4000 students, and I recently watched BBC World TV's program on the large-scale biogas project in Rwandan jails also described in this website.
To provide fuel to feed our students, our school is forced to purchase large amounts of firewood which contributes directly to continuing deforestation of the local area, and therefore I have a very strong interest in getting hold of a set of detailed construction plans for the fixed dome digesters and associated plumbing as shown in the Rwandan jail biogas project. Please contact me at area_fada@yahoo.com if you can be of help.
