Indonesia invented a new type of clean energy from tofu

For villages in remote areas in Indonesia, electrical appliances are too expensive. They often have to use wood or gas for heating and cooking. However, transporting these materials to remote areas is not a simple thing, besides the use of wood and gas also emits a lot of harmful gases into the environment.

The good news is that the Indonesian Government has found a new type of clean energy instead. It is not solar energy or wind power, but this kind of energy comes from tofu.

For us, tofu is a popular dish. It can be used to make almonds, a very tasty dish on hot days. But in Indonesia, tofu is not only a dish but it is also a clean energy source.

The Indonesian government has found a way to make that utopia a reality.

So how to turn tofu into an energy source? The Indonesian government has found a way to make that utopia a reality.

First, it stems from the way to make tofu . Basically, the processing of tofu is soaking and grinding soy beans. After puree we have soy milk, this liquid is passed through the filter system. Then added a few substances to help natural precipitate, help soy milk to solidify into tofu.

In this process, we will need to place a few heavy objects on top to squeeze all the water out of the tofu after it freezes. When finished, we have tofu and some waste water.

It is this country that will be used to create a new fuel that can replace gas. Researchers have found a way to add that water to a bacterium to turn it into biogas.

The production of tofu produces a huge amount of water.

The process of producing tofu produces a huge amount of water, which is why it is an abundant source of fuel. The Indonesian government tested this new method with a large tank truck, collecting wastewater from the process of producing tofu at the village seats.

After that, the tank truck will convert this waste water into biogas and return to supply it to the people. 20,000 such models are being planned by the Indonesian Government to put into practice.

This is an extremely effective solution to replace gas and wood, suitable for small villages in remote areas. This method should also be applied in many other developing countries like Vietnam.
