im guessing a portion of the sewer gases would need to directly drive a pump to have a flowrate and then the methane could be changed to a liquid hydrocarbon close in weight.

between doing this and melting pennies i would be rich.

this is the closest thing to free energy as it gets. even if i heated a home with it that would be a success. for a wood fire in the home, giving it a sewer gas intake would allow low methane not to extingish or lower reactor(stove) temp; the quality of combustion would remain good.

i would just feed it into a furnace then. that way the energy is taken from the sewer gas and the hazardous chemicals can be incinerated with the help of a common catyalitic converter found on many home wood stoves.

methane is like hydrogen a little bit and maybe a adsorbson tank of magnesium hydride pellets could adsorb the methane while not haveing preference for the hydrogen sulfide and from a series of fill and purge thetanks can seperate the methane.

doped zeolites like activated carbon also might work but the production of such a zeolite would have to be in-house because a system would go through it so fast.

another idea is chemically enhanced sparging equipment but what chemicals to use idk
