Students from Indonesia have created a new treatment for the cattle manure, the treatment is rather a process in which they create bricks made of 75% cattle manure which is 20% lighter and 20% stronger than the regular clay bricks that all of us know.
One good thing is they are driving an extra profit of 53% for the cattle producers, that could push such activity in that country and why not in México too. The guys from Indonesia have identified 22 possible places to develop this kind of brick plants.
One important aspect that should be noted is that, at least in Mexico the bricks producers were known as big contaminant emissors due to the char, or tires burnings all day long. According with the company EcoFaeBrick, the company agrees with an ecofriendly development of the economies, and for that reason, they are making the bricks with biogas.

Estudiantes de Indonesia han creado un nuevo tratamiento para el estiércol de ganado vacuno, el tratamiento es mas bien un proceso en el cual ellos fabrican ladrillos hechos de 75% estiércol vacuno que es 20% más ligero y 20% más fuerte que los ladrillos de arcilla que todos conocemos.
Un punto a favor es el hecho de que los productores ganaderos están aumentando sus ganancias en hasta 53%, esto podría impulsar tal actividad en aquel país y por qué no? también en México. Los jóvenes de Indonesia han identificado al menos 22 lugares que tienen el potencial de llevar a cabo la fabricación de estos ladrillos.
Algo importante que debería de revisarse, es que al menos en México los productores de ladrillos fueron conocidos gracias a sus emisiones contaminantes producto de la combustión de carbon y llantas durante el proceso. De acuerdo con la compañia EcoFaeBrick, la empresa esta de acuerdo en el desarrollo ambientalmente amigable de los sitemas economicos, y por esa razón están utilizand biogas para la fabricación de los ladrillos.

Interesting news. However I have a doubt/ question for all of you. Is there a possibility of the bricks made of cattle manure releasing greenhouse gases? Earlier days in India(even now in rural areas) people applied liquid cattle manure (slurry) to their floors of their mud houses as a disinfecting agent and for various other uses.
Gracias por remodelar el blog !! esta quedando muy bien.. ya necesitaba una nueva cara :)
wow amazing.
about green house gases release I'm pretty sure it could have some, i don't know in what quantity but at least some microorganism is going to be able to eat and eject some CO2 out of that manure brick hehe, don't know about methane cause of the anaerobic conditions (all of this is speculation based on little knowledge attained, you guys know i like to argument just for the sake of argumenting).
Are the Long chain fatty acids in the slurry doing the desinfectant work(with acidic conditions)?... though to think about in aerobic conditions they can be degraded.. mmm
