Abstract: A method of converting a shipping pallet for use as a building component for a environmentally green super-structure and green infrastructure including a range of building types from tent structures to homes medical facilities, classrooms, small commercial, and small industry. In one example, a hinged pallet frame is attached to an existing pallet to form a construction panel, and multiple panels are assembled and pivoted to form structures. A kit for converting a pallet comprises tubular frame elements, hinge connector elements, and leg frame elements. In other examples, new pallet-like panels are created with foam core, stress skin, and protective frames that facilitate interconnection.

Abstract: A process for recycling raw sewage and unsorted solid waste by adding the solids removed from sewage to ground unsorted waste forming a sludge, treating the sludge first anaerobically, sterilizing the anaerobically treated sludge, forming the sludge into a slurry, separating the biodegradable from the non-biodegradable material in the slurry by aerobic fermentation, composting the biodegradable material in batches, curing the compost under control conditions to stabilize its fertilizing properties and classifying the biodegradable and non-biodegradable material to provide useable products. The colloidal raw sewage liquor remaining after separation of the sewage solids is converted into pure water.
