WILTON, Conn., Feb. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Startech Environmental
Corporation (OTC Bulletin Board: STHK), a fully reporting company,
announced today that Popular Science Magazine, in its March '07 issue now
on the news stands, has produced a 9-page, well-illustrated feature article
on the Startech Plasma Converter as the "Miracle Energy Machine -- How to
Turn Toxic Waste into Clean Power."
Joseph F. Longo, Startech president said, "The response to the piece
continues to be enormous, and very favorable. However, because of few
clarifying questions asked in phone calls, I felt we should produce this
message.
"Several months ago, Popular Science magazine reached out for Startech
to do a feature article on the Company. In addition to their own
due-diligence, the lengthy interviews and conferences I have had with
various Popular Science editors and writers over the months since then have
resulted in a well- illustrated 9-page feature article in the March 07
issue.
"The writer took some good-natured liberties to help lighten the
reading of what could have been a somewhat dry technology story. The
writer, the photographer and the editors have my compliments and thanks in
making an otherwise confounding subject interesting, understandable and,
most of all, relevant."
He also said, "Among the thousands of words in the piece, there were a
very few inaccuracies, that are probably not noticeable except to those
closest to Startech, and probably not worth fussing about. Nevertheless, I
would be happy to receive a phone call or an e-mail on the piece.
"Award winning Popular Science magazine has chronicled science and
technology since 1872. It is a monthly magazine, published in English, with
a readership of more than seven million people."
About Startech -- The Environment and Energy Company
Startech Environmental is an environment and energy industry company
engaged in the production and sale of its innovative, proprietary plasma
processing equipment known as the Plasma Converter System(TM).
The Plasma Converter System safely and economically destroys wastes, no
matter how hazardous or lethal, and turns most into useful and valuable
products. In doing so, the System protects the environment and helps to
improve the public health and safety. The System achieves closed-loop
elemental recycling to safely and irreversibly destroy Municipal Solid
Waste, organics and inorganics, solids, liquids and gases, hazardous and
non- hazardous waste, industrial by-products and also items such as
"e-waste," medical waste, chemical industry waste and other specialty
wastes while converting many of them into useful commodity products that
can include metals and a synthesis-gas called Plasma Converted Gas
(PCG)(TM).
Among the many commercial uses for PCG, is its use to produce "green
electrical power," Gas-To-Liquid (GTL) fuels such as ethanol, synthetic
diesel fuel and other higher alcohol "alternative" fuels. Hydrogen, for use
and sale, can also be separated and recovered from the PCG synthesis gas
mixture.
The Startech Plasma Converter is essentially a manufacturing system
producing commodity products from feedstocks that were previously regarded
as wastes.
Startech regards all wastes, hazardous and non-hazardous, as valuable
renewable resources.
