WILTON, Conn., April 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Startech
Environmental Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: STHK), a fully reporting,
Award-winning Environment and Energy Company, announced today that the
EnviroSafe Industrial Services Corporation of San Juan, Puerto Rico has
expanded its original plans for its new recycling-facility and its location
to now include its intention to install three Plasma Converters Systems,
purchased last year from the Company, in an existing, former
pharmaceutical-industry-facility also located in Puerto Rico.
Steve Landa, Startech VP, said, "The Converters being manufactured now
will be used by EnviroSafe to process various wastes including
pharmaceutical-industry waste with the resulting Plasma Converted Gas used
to make various Alternative Fuels. It is important to note here that in
this first-of-its-kind facility, the Alternative Fuels will be produced
from waste as the feedstock and not from food-crops."
About Startech -- the Environment and Energy Company
Startech is the internationally recognized, Award-winning Environment
and Energy Industry Company producing and selling 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 to
process wastes, as feedstocks, and to produce valuable commodity products
from those feedstock-materials that were previously regarded as wastes.
Startech regards all wastes, hazardous and non-hazardous, as valuable
renewable resources and as feedstocks.
