Testing and commissioning program commences on new 5TPD unit
· High quality synthesis gas produced successfully with new 5TPD modular unit
· Entry-level product targeted at a worldwide market
· Efficient Waste to Energy demonstrated in modular design
· Powerhouse/Pyromex integration moving forward on track
Powerhouse and Pyromex, AG ("Pyromex") announce the continued operation and successful testing of its redesigned Ultra High Temperature Gasification Reactor in Schwartzenbach, Switzerland. The culmination of several months of dedicated efforts on behalf of the engineering, manufacturing and commissioning teams, the new version of the 5 Tonne per day system incorporates new innovations in Waste to Energy technology to improve ease of maintenance and operation of the system. Based on components used in the 25 Tonne per day unit in Eitting, Germany, the compact, modular, 5TPD unit is purpose-built for operation in an office park, enterprise, or community. With a small footprint, generating no smoke, leaving no toxic residue behind, and eliminating up to 99% of land-fill destined waste, the Pyromex Reactor is ideal for sustained electrical generation in an environmentally friendly manner.
Testing and commissioning will be continuing over the next 30 days followed closely by a number of customer demonstration visits.
"During the four years of operation of our 25 Tonne per day Reactor, I envisaged the creation of a smaller unit which could operate within the confines of an office setting or industrial facility." said Peter Jeney, the President of Pyromex. "We have progressed the technology to the point of creating the ideal modular component, generating ultra-clean synthesis gas and creating affordable renewable energy for our planet."
"The results of the program are meeting our expectations and have shown that our systems are nearly ready for successful commercial delivery" said Keith Allaun, Chairman of PowerHouse, owner of the Pyromex technology.
Allaun concluded, "The integration of the operational teams of Powerhouse and Pyromex have continued to create synergy and the minor challenges we've faced have been met and successfully managed by this tremendously committed group. I'm very pleased with the progress we are making"
