How clean is it?

For decades, researchers have been working to develop ways to dispose of waste by converting it into usable products such as electricity. Until now, however, many of these solutions, such as incineration, have had an unacceptable impact on our environment.

The solution at Plasco Energy Group's Trail Road demonstration facility is different. Not only is the process clean and safe, but it goes far beyond compliance with the most stringent emission guidelines around the world.

The process of transforming mixed waste into clean synthetic gas produces zero impact on the environment:

The products of the Plasco Conversion System are safe and usable:

The process for generating electricity is well-known:

The solution at the Trail Road facility operates well within the strictest emissions limits from around the world, including the existing regulations here in Ontario. So it is safe for our community and our environment.

Not only does Plasco's electricity generation greatly reduce air, water and land pollution, it also greatly reduces greenhouse gases and contributes to fighting climate change.
