Integration of Metals and Hydrogen Recovery and Electrical Power
Generation Systems Enable Customers to Process MSW
at Zero Dollars per Ton
Startech Environmental Corporation (OTC: Bulletin Board: STHK), a fully reporting company, today announced its new Plasma Converter System for the safe and irreversible destruction of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). The new system integrates an automatic metal recovery system operating before the Plasma Converter, as well as a hydrogen recovery system and an electrical power generation system after the Converter. The complete Plasma Converter System enables customers to process MSW at zero dollars per ton.
Startech recently submitted a report on its new system to a large city in the U.S. The report details how a 2,000 ton per day Plasma Converter System can process MSW at zero dollars per ton.
The report also illustrates how a city can net more than $10 per ton by recovering metals and hydrogen from its MSW and selling the materials on the open market at current rates. It further explains that if a city ignores the recovery and sale of metals and hydrogen, and receives no tipping fees, costs will still be less than $39 per ton, far lower than current costs.
In addition, the report describes how a Startech MSW facility can be an attractive low profile plant with no smokestack. It also outlines how the blackout-proof facility can produce its own green electric power and not be a burden to the electric grid.
