Dry dung fuel

Dry dung fuel (or dry manure fuel) is animal feces that have been dried in order to be used as a fuel source. It is used in many countries. Using dry manure as a fuel source is an example of reuse of human excreta.[1] A disadvantage of using this kind of fuel is increased air pollution.[2]
