Better to say it's an efficient use of garbage because it costs money to dispose of garbage and this way you get some return out of it.

How do fossil fuels make electicity?

the burning of fossil fuels creates thermal energy, which in this case is on the from of steam, which then in turn rotates a turbine


What energy is thought as garbage?

There isn't one - no energy is "garbage". You could recover energy as heat from garbage by burning it for heating purposes or to raise steam to drive turbo-alternators.

What is garbage energy?

Trash to enery refers to incineration. Modern incinerators burn the waste material to create steam that in turn fuels an electrical generator. The emmissions that are created during the burning process are "scrubbed" to reduce the pollution that is emmitted into the environment.

How do you produce eletricity from chicken manure through steam?

Well, in general terms chicken manure has heating value. It can be burned and generate heat. You take that heat and convert water to steam. This is done in a piece of equipment called a boiler. You can burn anything in a boiler which is designed to transfer the heat to water and turn it into steam. The steam is run throught a steam turbine which is connected to a generator. The turbine turns the generator and produces electicity. This is done everyday in non-nuclear power plants except that manure is not used. Instead, oil, propane, or coal is used, sometimes garbage. What ever deliver the most heat at the least costs. But you can generate electricity by burning any organic material.

In the garbage bin on main street


Where is the steam battery on steamworks island?

The Steam Battery is in the garbage bin on the side of the Clockwork Cantina, which is just to your right when you enter the island.


What is the main method of making electicity?

The answer depends on what precisly you mean. The commonest engineering technology involved is turbines, but there are many ways to turn them. probably the commonest way is steam. The commonest fuel to generate the steam, globally - coal.


What powered the first railways in America?

They were powered by steam locomotives. The steam was produced by burning wood or coal.


How can you get a generator working by garbage?

# Bury the garbage. Let it decompose. It will generate methane gas. Capture the methane and use it to run an engine or gas turbine. Use the engine or turbine to turn the generator. # If the garbage is wood, grass, or other material that can be burned, then burn it. Use the heat to boil water into steam in a boiler. Use the steam to turn a steam turbine. Use the steam turbine to turn the generator. Both of these methods (and there are more) are already used world-wide to generate power.
