Description:
Our technology is a giant leap ahead for the field of renewable energy. Using ordinary municipal waste, our uniquely engineered pressed-bed gasifier creates syngas by injecting air into the system and compressing the feedstock through our proprietary thermochemical process until they are broken down. The silicate slag removed in this process can be repurposed for other uses, such as road construction. The syngas is then cooled, cleaned, and run to a power generator. The results of this new process are astounding; three to four times the power generated at a fraction of the cost versus any methods currently in use!
In addition to more abundant, low-cost energy, this technology provides a self-sustaining plant, multiple revenue streams through generation of energy, heat, and reusable byproducts, and a smaller environmental impact than any current method of power generation. In short, our technology makes the dream of an eco-friendly, self-sustaining society not just a reality, but a positive proposition for everyone.
