Hammer mill - it appears that CEB walls, wood rafters, and green roofs thrown on top of a roof by a hammer mill are a great method for building with 100% onsite material. Straw or branches are chopped by a hammer mill - and these have a strong ejection port that may throw such biomass on top of a roof to decompose into a green roof. The hammer mill may chop straw or newspaper for straw-clay insulation. The hammer mill is the great aid for any organic farming - with any type of compost chopped for facilitating decay. Critical to soil fertility if enhanced soil building is required. The hammer mill can also chop a large variety of other items, perhaps plastic for recycling. We are using one currently to make mulch for raised organoponic beds and to mulch our orchard. May be applicable to mulching wood for making compressed wood gas.
