Cow dung may soon power computers!

Cow manure may soon be used as a source of energy to power data centers or Internet in the future.

Hewlett – Packard has released a study called “Design of Farm Waste – Driven Supply Side Infrastructure
for Data Centers” that draws attention to biogas energy created from cow dung.

The study encourages dairy farmers to rent out land and power to technology companies,
reports Discovery News. Planet Green TV channel explained the process of
transforming cow manure to bio-fuel called biogas.

In this process, manure is first collected from the cows, and put under an anaerobic
ligestion process, releasing methane gas.

This gas can be used as natural gas or diesel fuel in generators that produce electricity.

It apparently takes 10,000 cows to produce enough manure to power a small computer centre for a bank.



Sri Nanda Maharaja had 900,000 cows. Visvanatha Cakravarti gives this description of the cows of Vrindavana.Sri Krishna knew every cow by name. If any cow was missing Sri Krishna would immediately chase after the missing cow and call her by name.The cows were divided into herds by color, either black, white, red, or yellow. In each color there were 25 further divisions making a total of 100 herds. There were also eight herds of cows that were spotted or speckled or had heads shaped like a mridanga or that had tilak marks on their foreheads. There was a total of 108 different herds of cows. Each of the 108 herds had a herd leader.





Thus when Sri Krishna calls out, 'Hey Dhavali' (the name of a white cow)
a whole group of white cows comes forward, and when Sri Krishna calls 'Hamsi, Candani, Ganga, Mukta' and so on, the twenty-four other groups of white cows come.
The reddish cows are called 'Aruni, Kunkuma, Sarasvati, etc.,
the blackish ones 'Shyamala, Dhumala, Yamuna, etc.,
and the yellowish ones are Pita, Pingala, Haritaki, etc.
(Srimad Bhagavatam 10.35.19 purport).






As described in the Brahma Samhita (surabhi apbipalayantam), Lord Sri Krishna on His planet, Goloka Vrindavana, engages in tending the surabhi cows. These cows are the Lord's pet animals. (Srimad Bhagavatam 8.8.2 purport)


Kamadhenu is also well-known through its other five forms: Nanda, Sunanda, Surabhi, Susheela and Sumana. Mythologically, Brahma (the creator) created the
brahmins (priests) and the cow at the same time, the Brahmins
were to recite the religious scriptures while the cow was
to afford ghee (clarified butter) for offerings in religious sacrifices.
Brahma also affirmed it to be the mother of gods,
ought to be worshipped and anybody who killed a
cow or allows another to kill it, was deemed to rot in hell,
for as many years as there are hair upon his body.
