Turning waste into electricty and saving money

Bruichladdich Distillery in Scotland, a maker of single malt whisky, is hoping to save $175,000 a year by producing as much as 80 percent of its electricity from waste that was formerly pumped into the sea. The distillery now spends $30,000 each year disposing of the waste called pot ale.

Mark Reynier, the owner says that the effort is part of just trying to be sensible. For more information, read this article on CNN's website. Scotch distillery turns whisky into watts by Matthew Knight on May 21, 2010.
