Dear Colleagues,
The Miao and Kam ethnic minority peoples of China use methane from their animal waste as fuel. They produce methane in their villages in methane-producing pits. My Kam student of Guizhou Province wrote a paper on methane production. His name is Su Yingren and his email address is: bhelds@126.com
Sincerely,
