EQTEC Gasifier Technology (“EGT”) is an advanced conversion technology which converts biomass and waste into a synthetic gas used to power gas turbines and generate electricity.
The fuel that is used in the EGT conversion process is Refuse Derived Fuel (“RDF”). RDF is a fuel produced from various types of wastes such as Municipal Solid Waste, industrial wastes or commercial wastes.
In excess of 4 million tonnes of RDF is currently exported annually from the UK. The UK is currently exporting a potential energy source in RDF due to a lack of conversion capacity.
