Making Clean Energy from Waste with PEM
Submitted by Energy Answers Blog
Especially in the current financial environment, renewable energy production will be much more competitive if it solves other problems at the same time, such as waste disposal.
Making Clean Energy from Waste - Renewable Energy World: “Rather than incinerating waste, InEnTec uses its Plasma Enhanced Melter (PEM) Systems to heat waste to very high temperatures using electrically charged gas (plasma), breaking down organic material and creating a variety of products.”

We shouldn’t be wasting waste methane either. How much methane is flared into the atmosphere at sewage plants or released at landfills? UC San Diego is building the largest biogas fuelcell on a university campus and the largest energy storage project for permanent load shifting to go along with it. The energy storage will be funded with fuel cell incentives just approved by the California Public Utilities Commission. Power created by the university’s 2.8 MW biogas fuel cell will be stored and used during peak demand. Check it out at http://greenestuniversity.blogspot.com
