Benefits of using a Biodigester:
♤ It digests organic solids in an ecological way;
♤ It prevents human waste and untreated water from contaminating groundwater;
♤ It offers an alternative to dumping sewage into rivers, lakes and fields in rural and semi-rural areas where there are no city sewage systems;
♤ The effluent of water can be used as fertilizer for soil, to water plants, or for fish ponds;
♤ It’s cleaner, more effective and easier to use than a septic tank because it doesn’t need to be cleaned or emptied and doesn’t create leakage problems;
♤ It is odorless, as opposed to composting toilets and septic tanks;
♤ It doesn’t require the work and energy involved in relocating composting toilets every year.
