The team is now gearing up to test its methane munching technology beyond the laboratory and will use a 40-foot container-sized prototype at livestock barns in Denmark.
Indeed that’s 10 hundredweight. Which maybe ironically enough is rather intuitive for me, Germany still uses pounds and hundredweight (Zentner) in informal and sectorial use, meaning 500g and 50kg.

America is slowly switching to the metric system: metric pounds, metric feet, you know…
