Nevertheless the conclusion from Plasco is that the dream has not yet become a reality and i would prefer the following title for the first video : " How it should work" instead of " How it works " Cheers, dANY Thanks Amanda for those videos from Plasco.

Nevertheless the conclusion from Plasco is that the dream has not yet become a reality and i would prefer the following title for the first video :

” How it should work” instead of ” How it works ”

Ex) landfills. The company seems to be working hard and quickly to get the concept and the technology to the market. I came across this video on the company website that clearly explains the whole process. It's worth a look if you're interested: http://www.plascoenergygroup.com/?Media_Centre#Animated-Video It seems that Plasco has come a long way and is poised to provide a viable and valuable solution to the way we currently manage waste.

As professional specialized reporter you should easyly get and provide to us this information. I can hardly belive you are not aware of the poor performance of this process !!! Dany. Hi Rick ( and Mr Anonymous too )

Since you seem to know pretty well ” Mr Rod from PLASCO ” :
You can probably get from him actual figures on the real performance of this trail vs targets :
- Average municipal waste processed daily : 8.2 Tons / days ( target was 85 Tons per day !! )
- Electricity really produced : no figures provided ( non offilly : almost 0 ) , target was 11 MW!!

As professional specialized reporter you should easyly get and provide to us this information.
I can hardly belive you are not aware of the poor performance of this process !!!

He always says 16 and often acknoledges that some are still pending. Any other outragous claims you want to make? Anonymously of course. Rick Hey Anonymous,

A search on various patent databases reveals the following: 2 issued US patents (in 2000 and 2004, respectively) and 14 US applications, ie. NOT ISSUED. Andreas Tsangaris, current Chief Scientist at Plasco, is principal inventor in all cited references. Anyone care to confirm 160 issued patents.
