Are there any sources of fuel to create a fire from volcanoes (excluding the irony)?
@ausguerila,
you dont consider the volcanoes fire and scoria important enough?
@farmerman,
Like I said, excluding the irony. I mean whether anything that is released. Could any of it be used as a fuel source for a camp fire?
@ausguerila,
Does anyone know of another forum or website where this could be answered?
@ausguerila,
In Sistan and Baluchestan which is the southeastern most province of Iran, there are small mud volcanoes emitting methane gas which catch fire in contact with flame. This is possibly because of organic activity deep in the mud pool.
@AmirHoshang Noura,
Prhaps it is Zam who is expelling a fart
@farmerman,
Dear Mr. Farmerman (Fartman) the origin of the flammable gas are Sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB).
@AmirHoshang Noura,
could be something the planet subducted. Theres tons of more easily "gathered" methanes and ethanes from ocean clathrates . In the Arctic,(where all the volcano fields are on a single submarine ridge)clathrates can be pressure mined and exploited for fueling deeper drilling
