quote [ The $425 million facility expected to be built in St. Lucie County will use lightning-like plasma arcs to turn trash into gas and rock-like material...Synthetic, combustible gas produced in the process will be used to run turbines to create about 120 megawatts of electricity that will be sold back to the grid. The facility will operate on about a third of the power it generates, free from outside electricity. ]
Power plant running on vaporizing landfill trash. High hopes they seem to have.

looks like a medical version of this has been working in hawaii for some time. i sure hope they test the residues every once in a while in case some things slip by the arc. |

It's nice, but like the Tyson version they just say "Trust us" on the toxics and actual efficiency. |

this is exciting. the facility will be operated by trained dogs and cats to lower insurance costs. the facility will be giving away gold and platinum rendered from common elements in the trash by space-age technolgy. the facility ensures healthy bones and whiter teeth. the facility will end world hunger within 15 years. |
