WILTON, Conn., March 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Startech
Environmental Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: STHK), a fully reporting,
internationally recognized Award-winning Environment and Energy company
announced today that "waste2greenenergy (w2ge)," the Company's distributor
for the United Kingdom and for the Republic of Poland, intends to install
its first Plasma Converter System at a designated facility in Bytom, Poland
to process ten-tons of industrial waste per day.
Joseph F. Longo, Startech president, said, "The Bytom installation is
especially important to the Company because it is the opener to the entire
European market including the large market in Poland that has been a long
time in development. The Plasma Converter, purchased by w2ge last August
and being manufactured now, will be the first in Europe."
John Cameron, w2ge's Chief Operating Officer said, "We are very excited
regarding the prospects for Startech's Plasma Converter System. We have a
very strong pipeline of projects in Poland and anticipate the Bytom
facility being the first of many Plasma Converter Systems which we will
install in Poland. Poland is one of the fastest growing economies in the
European Union and is a key market for w2ge. Poland has embraced plasma
technology in its environmental laws as one of the preferred technologies
for the safe disposal of industrial wastes. Bytom will be the first
operational Plasma Converter System in the European Union and will operate
as a flagship for Startech's unique Plasma Converter technology.
"Beyond Bytom, we have a significant number of projects across Poland
at various stages of advancement. The installation of these systems across
a wide-range of Polish industries will propel Poland and w2ge to the
forefront of 21st Century waste management technology."

About Startech -- The Environment and Energy Company
Startech is the internationally recognized, Award-winning 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 urban waste,
organics and inorganics, solids, liquids and gases, hazardous and
non-hazardous waste, industrial by-products and also items such as
electronics-waste (e-waste), medical waste, chemical industry waste and
other specialty wastes, while converting many of them into useful commodity
products that can include silicates, metals and a synthesis-gas called
Plasma Converted Gas (PCG) (TM).
Among the many commercial uses for PCG, is its use to produce
"Carbonless Electric Power" from Startech Hydrogen, Gas-To-Liquid (GTL)
fuels such as ethanol, synthetic diesel fuel and other higher alcohol
"alternative" fuels. Startech Hydrogen, for commercial use and sale, can
also be recovered from the PCG.
The Startech Plasma Converter is essentially a manufacturing system
producing valuable commodity products from feedstock-materials that were
previously regarded as wastes.
Startech regards all wastes, hazardous and non-hazardous, as valuable
renewable resources and as feedstocks.
