Waste-to-Energy (WtE) technologies, including advanced thermal processes like gasification, pyrolysis, and incineration, have not seen universal adoption due to a combination of high costs, environmental concerns, and logistical hurdles. While used in some regions with limited landfill space (like Denmark or Singapore), several factors limit its widespread adoption:

Extremely High Capital and Operational Costs: WtE facilities are notoriously expensive to build (often costing hundreds of millions) and operate. They require sophisticated technology for combustion and emissions control.

Environmental and Health Concerns: Despite advancements, WtE plants can produce toxic pollutants, including dioxins, mercury, and heavy metals. Opponents argue that burning waste is a major environmental stressor and does not align with "green" or circular economy goals.

Carbon Emissions and Inefficiency: Burning waste often produces significant greenhouse gases, sometimes making it more carbon-intensive than landfilling. Furthermore, compared to other renewable energy sources, the net energy generated is often low.

Waste Composition Variability: Municipal solid waste (MSW) is not uniform, making it difficult to maintain stable combustion and efficient energy production. In some regions, waste has high moisture content, reducing its calorific value.

Disincentivizes Recycling: WtE facilities require a constant, high-volume supply of waste to be economically viable. This creates a "catch-22" where the technology competes with, rather than supports, recycling and waste reduction initiatives.

Local Opposition (NIMBY): Public opposition to the odor, traffic, and potential pollution from incinerators often stops or delays projects.

Logistical Challenges: In developing nations, lack of waste segregation, inadequate logistics for collection, and limited technical expertise hinder implementation.

While some technologies (like gasification and pyrolysis) are cleaner, they often struggle to achieve commercial viability at a large scale.

It is Unique from Ground level, and the processing has simplified as a result but i try to leave that there and still work to industry norms than get into the mindset of just ripping up everything we know in the belief we can just change industry and its mechanics out of sheer Rhethoric. Its a huge find, with huge significant implications but its still confined to the same constraints as any other companies in areas we can't change

"Maybe forward selling of product to an industry customer would be helpful too"

Certainly in the intermediate, without the need for the Pilot Plant you can at least mirror what a process Plant should look like and im assuming thats the Goal, show whats in the Ground from point to point manufacturing process at a low cost (No Build) for planning stages and development purposes. What i mean is, its a short term solution to a long term project. I can't see it being a Future operation, plausible but just seems daft

I personally dont think their looking at a JV, and if thats a scenario they are looking to do it in a position of Strengh and Goverment assistance will help that given us a larger portion through having the means to continue with the Project. I know a few here, talk about a Sub contract operation but come on, how much overheads is that, from Peter to Paul all to produce a final product operation doesnt seem economically sustainable. Your either building a Site and Production, or someone else will, and EEE dont have the financial resources or the Company infrastructure to build that Operation so will potentially need a partner just not one that reduces out footprint to a minor footnote.

Golferboy

What are you talking about? Im not betting on anything its not Gambling. I have plenty of avenues of finance, amd many other promising stocks so no im not dreaming, i live in reality and why I said all last year to many of these there is plenty of work to do before getting ahead of yourself.

"SCOPING STUDIES" end of 2026 highlights that, this is a phase you normally see once the Orphan period begins although that phase is often dismissed here as irrelevant. We will see.

I think you are confusing me as a member of this cult here, im not asking you to agree with my view and I do see yours but its what you do with your disagreement. You are just getting defensive, if you don't share my view fine. Nothing wrong, just don't be like these mate.

Golferboy

These innovations are still in their infancy, but Airbus looks operational and obviously still in final testing phase and Japans Solar Panels still not a complete Technology but the demand is growing. And yes in theory Big Pockets cam constrict a market, but when that market is China, Russia, Kazakhstan etc we are perfectly suited to be a competitor.

There is always competition mate, you are talking like there is only one gold mine, one Gold Supplier. There isn't, but its still highly valued.

But I see your points, in theory just like mine are. A view of how the market should, or could behave with a growing number of innovative methods and a further abundance, what the effects could benefit and obviously from your angle what can be a negative effect

"How the F did you conclude that i said the price of Ti is irrelevant"

Im unsure why he put that, i never said he called it irrelevant it was me suggesting it is.

He is comparing the Bull Runs of Gold, Silver and Copper etc to this in terms of price. I think the price will always be offset by certain factors, some will reduce and some will inflate but its about making it more accessible to further markets. Raising the price, then raises the economics of using the material and becomes less a necessity and more a luxury.

So if you want demand to grow, and combat oversupply you want to lower the price, to make it a competitive alternative and more accessible.

Maybe thats just me, im no economics major im just trying to add some common sense to it that just looking at the value of Titanium today

@Slappyfpv

I will treat people like Red how they treat others, Testpack3 etc. Look at what they do, they just come here to argue, take the mick and ridicule people. If you think that's what im about Slappy your mistaken, im kind to people, i like people, i dont like the cretins who never have anything nice to say to people i find them annoying.

I will lay off loads, as he seems a nice, honest soul i just wish he would just stick to his own thing now some of his practices have lost making sense.

Red, is a weapon mate. PMSL, LMAO, etc guys a child here to be a Ass to people.

If that makes me a bad person in the eyes of LSE forums, so be it. My wife and children, and those close to me or know me don't see it that way so its all that matters to me.

When something becomes more abundantly resources and easier, and more cost effective to produce then inherently you will lower the price, but by doing so you will create a more growing demand as it becomes economically viable to smaller industries and a wider variation of products that are currently priced out the market so no, i dont agree.

I think the opposite occurs, the demand will grow for a high quality material often out of reach to manufactures in places like the Food industry, Medical and automobile.

But then, maybe that is stupid. I mean what do I know about economics eh!! Seems more than you

"No wonder people continuosly argue with you when you make stupid conclusions"

Well then isnt that the point of forums? To post opinions and thoughts?

Yes, you and your those comments are why I argue with people. Did I call you stupid? Have I lambasted you? I gave you my perspective on the Price, you chose to them insult me.

Thats all they do here, as its a tiny screen and your so so brave.

But reality is, you and none of these would speak to people in person this way.

So shut up and crack on

From last summer:

Japan breaks photovoltaics laws in the world — First-ever titanium solar panel makes history https://share.google/KO7CdtpT5uwdVOZAu

So Golferboy, the price of Titanium is irrelevant. The main aim should be to lower the price, through innovative means and a more secure supply line, making it a more suitable and accessible material for a wider range of industries to which we can then supply given the indicated size of Pitfield at current size that should cover supply for quite some time. The price going higher, doesnt necessarily work in our favour, it becomes less an attractive alternative and manufactures use cheaper, but just as suitable materials.

So lower Bruce, works for me

LMFAO at the fact you have been posting here almost every day for 3 years (likely longer), weekends also even though you have to keep selling at losses.

Yet still come here, for kicks right? Sad, very very Sad!!! There must be nothing you have going for you, if your hanging around an old investment everyday arguing with strangers in a company you lost 40% of your investment and hold no shares

The only thing that's predictable is you

I still say, this moves 15% up you will be in here quicker than you can pitch a Tent ⛺️

That's how predictable your investing is

Feed him for your own amusement, he will follow. Just make stuff up, lay down traps, lead him into Google searches throughout the night, have him researching stuff for no reason until he is froffing from the keyboard, make him feel like he has you but in reality he is just being played like an Old piano

Dr Anomaly

You are doing it wrong, you are explaining, justifying yourself and scrolling his content!!! All feeding his pathetic existence here, just drown him out with the same amount of stupidity he offers here, send him on merry go rounds by design, watch him bubble and combust till he decides you need filtered and he won.

As his reality, you never win. But your reality, you led him excatly where you wanted. Out your hair, rambling to himself like a lunatic.

Testpack3 and Red, both had to filter me. They thought they could harrass me, I just took them to the brink of madness.

Now I get peace and quiet

Impact of Lower Costs: Improved, easier, and cheaper processing methods—such as advancements in the chloride process—significantly reduce production costs, which places downward pressure on the market price.Abundance vs. Demand: While \(TiO_{2}\) is geologically abundant, the market value is dictated by the ability to process it efficiently. If new, easier methods are developed, the market could become flooded, reducing the price.Production Constraints: Despite high reserves, the market can still experience high prices due to supply chain disruptions, such as raw material shortages (ilmenite/rutile) or environmental regulations in China (the largest producer).Rising Demand: A growing global population and urbanization, particularly in Asia-Pacific, drive up demand for \(TiO_{2}\) in paints, coatings, and plastics. This strong demand can offset the price drops caused by increased supply.High-Value Applications: While basic \(TiO_{2}\) pigment might see price reductions, specialized \(TiO_{2}\) (e.g., nanoparticle forms for self-cleaning coatings or electronic applications) may retain higher value due to the technical complexity of their production. 

Given the mission to provide alternative supply chains to Titanium needs, wether its pigment or manufactured components and given the breakthroughs similar to Ageos post, and JTSHARES link. And the fact its abundant, and has at least one more WA site mining Titanium

Surely the Price would go lower?

"Lousy people Skills"

I can only respond, to what's put in front of me mate. Its usually an unpleasant remark, indirectly or directly.

I get on fine, on any other forum or social setting its just here. You used to at times, when your not we communicate just fine

Got it all

Gold, silver, copper

Titanium

Critical minerals

I want to say Lithium, but closest TM1 is to Lithium is the growing number of old batteries left in containers out back no doubt!! One day maybe
