Some of the benefits associated with the PPV as a solution for the disposal of various waste streams generated today include but not limited to:

* CONSERVATION OF LAND.

(Practically the elimination of Landfills )

* PREVENTION AND PROTECTION OF OUR GROUND WATER RESOURCES. (Minimize the potential for ground water pollution from leachate or leakage from landfills ).

* GENERATION OF ELECTRICAL ENERGY FROM VARIOUS WASTE STREAMS. (Sellable Electrical Energy to Utility Industries).

* ELEMINATION OF TOXIC GAS EMISSION TO THE ENVIRONMENT FROM THE INCINERATOR OPERATIONS.

Inert gases-Hydrogen and Carbon monoxide-are the off gases from PPV

(operation).

* SLAG IS GENERATED AS BY- PRODUCT OF PPV.

(Slag can be sold in the market place for sidewalks, roadway, garden furniture,

etc.).

PlasMARRC© intends to “ make a world of difference” and set a new standard for various waste disposal practices by strongly supporting and embracing the PPV technology as a new revolution for waste recycling/ disposal.

There are huge differences between PPV and Incineration as method of waste treatment from an Engineering, Environmentalist and Investors point of view. No ashes remain after volume reduction or waste treatment by PPV when compared to Incineration. In addition, much less gas is produced by PPV when compared to Incineration. Toxic gases are usually associated with incineration and that is why it is followed by afterburner, scrubber units, quench water and so forth. Thus, PlasMARRC©’s competition is little to none!

PPV is a process that converts electricity and a small amount of gas into ultra-high temperature heat source called Plasma. Plasma is then applied to waste substance via plasma torches and a process vessel where Pyrolysis and Vitrification takes place simultaneously.

* PYROLYSIS is a process whereby high temperature converts “carbon-rich” or (organic) waste streams into fuel gas which is a form of recycling (gasification). This process recovers energy from organic waste streams. The organic portion of the waste is pyrolyzed into fuel gas.

* VITRIFICATION is the process whereby high temperature melts “carbon-less” or in-organic waste streams into a glassy state called slag. The slag is considered the safest form of solid waste and it is non-leachable. Vitrification is the preferred method of processing incinerator ash because it guarantees environmental safety of solid residues (i.e. non-leachable slag). Incinerator ash is more difficult to treat than tire/rubber waste.

* LEACHATE is formed when rainwater/water is in contact with buried wastes at a landfill or a land disposal unit. The leachate travels downwards through the depth of the landfill until it reaches and contaminate the underlying ground water table. When buried wastes are subjected to rain water and generates leachate, the waste is said to be leachable
