If you have a supply of this kind of landfill, you might put two 
similar units side by side, wire the primaries in series (effectively 
halving the volts per turn, so eliminating the saturation problems). 
Then you can knock the shunts out and wind a similar secondary on each 
(doubling the number of turns to compensate for the half primary 
voltage) and wire those two secondaries in parallel.  This gives you a 
reasonably efficient transformer (that won't overheat without a fan) 
with about a kVA rating.
