NEW Profitability of mining with no energy costs

[somervpa]

So I work for a company that has stakes in multiple different industries and one of those is waste management. We own a landfill that produces 7 tons of methane a day, of which is just being flared and wasted into the air. By having that methane fuel a generator, how much energy would it produce? Adding to that, if we used that energy from the generator and connected it to optimal mining rigs, how much profit are we looking at by mining BTC. We're trying to figure out right now if this is even a profitable investment because I know we'll have to replace the hardware every couple years.

So basically is it worth it?

Have the landfill company contact a company that deals with flare gas power generation... Considering how common it is for large landfills to do it, should be a safe bit that the site owners can easily contact the companies that build the power generation... If anything just google 'waste gas power generation' or 'co-generation' ... Even if mining does not work, they should still be able to provide several MW of power they can sell to the local power company.
