Multi-functional fecal waste and garbage processor and associated methods

A method of processing wet organic sludge having water and solid fuel material, comprising:

• Directing a flow of the sludge along a fuel path of a fuel dryer assembly, wherein the sludge moves through a heater portion of the fuel dryer assembly;
• boiling the sludge in the fuel dryer assembly with heat from the heater portion and thermally separating the water from the solid fuel material to provide dried fuel;
• condensing in a fresh water condenser assembly steam liberated from the sludge for use as potable water;
• receiving in a dry fuel combustor assembly the dried fuel from the fuel dryer assembly, the dry fuel combustor assembly having a combustor portion and having a boiler configured to receive heat from the combustor portion;
• directing steam from the boiler to a fluid path of a condenser portion of the fuel dryer assembly, wherein the fluid path through the condenser is isolated from the fuel path;
• combusting the dried fuel in the combustor portion to generate heat that boils water in the boiler to generate steam;
• generating electricity with a steam powered generator via the steam received from the boiler, the steam powered generator providing steam to the condenser portion;
• directing the condensed steam from the fresh water condenser assembly through a water treatment system that receives the condensed steam in either vapor phase or liquid phase or both, wherein the condensed steam as liquid water is passed through a purifier and filter to provide the potable water;
• and
• pumping with a water pump a flow of water from the condenser portion of the fuel dryer;
• wherein the flow of water is pumped from a water outlet of the water pump to the boiler;
• wherein the boiler converts a flow of water entering the boiler to a flow of steam to power the steam-powered generator.
