Gasification licence agreed in Thailand for plasma technology

Waste2Tricity’s subsidiary Waste2Tricity International (Thailand) Limited has now got a full exclusive licence agreement for the Alter NRG Corp Westinghouse Plasma Gasification Technology in Thailand. The licence is for all applications of the Westinghouse plasma technology in the Thailand market for an initial term of five years at a price of $2 million. Waste2Tricity has paid $1 million, with the remaining $1 million payable in December 2014. Waste2Tricity said it will now embark on rolling out the technology in Thailand using 1,000 tonne per day systems. Walter Howard, chief executive of Alter NRG said that South East Asia is a key market, based on sustained economic and population growth which he said is creating "significant waste challenges as well as increasing electricity needs". Piangkwan Thummukgool, director and lead co-ordinator for the Thai project, said: “The model that Waste2Tricity has created with the purchase of this exclusive licence will enable us to advance existing discussions with potential customers, municipalities and other stakeholders into binding commitments.” Read More Plasma gasification waste to energy developer secures $1.5 million Thai investment London based Waste2Tricity has secured a $1.5 million investment into Waste2tricity International (Thailand)...
