Hot Water Compost System in Hungary

To learn more about permaculture, visit Geoff is currently at the Permaculture Research Institute in Hungary (), where he is demonstrating a hot water compost system that is being built by local interns. This system uses thermal composting to generate hot showers while also recycling organic matter. Geoff explains the straightforward yet ingenious design, which illustrates how composting can have dual benefits by producing hot water and usable compost. Key Takeaways: - The system uses thermal composting to heat water for showers. - Organic matter like apple juice waste and farm animal manure fuel the compost. - The system produces both hot water and compost, maximizing resource efficiency. - The design is simple and adaptable, using garden hoses and natural materials. - The project exemplifies permaculture’s focus on recycling and resource conservation. *To support us in making more videos:* ► Sign up for our newsletter and the Permaculture Circle—Geoff’s curated collection of 100 free videos: ► Like us on Facebook: ► Follow us on Instagram: ► Subscribe to our YouTube channel: ► And most importantly, enjoy your permaculture journey! #permaculture #permaculturedesign #sustainableliving #compostheating #hotwatercompost #organicfarming #regenerativeagriculture #zerowastelife #hungarypermaculture #compost #renewableenergy #closedloopsystem
