With the focus of Dr. C’s Research Team being biosustainability and renewable resources, it should come as no surprise that their work might be a little more unconventional than some of the other teams.  Take for instance the fuel for their bioreactor – dried animal waste.  You’d think a feedyard might be a good place to find some animal waste.  And if we are short on some amenities that bring quality of life to the masses, one thing we have in abundance in Abilene is cattle and feedyards and animal waste.  Problem solved, right?  Well, not so fast.  The bioreactor requires animal waste with some special characteristics – not any old poo will do!  So with that in mind, there was a need to locate and purchase the right stuff.  Enter Amazon and the ability to purchase just the right product from India.  We hear delivery is scheduled for next week.
