In re Covanta and converting Crane's waste paper into clean energy I note this:
  To make diesel from trash, Covanta  Renewable Fuels  LLC, a subsidiary of Covanta Energy, would take solid  waste, blend it  with heavy oil and a catalyst, and then heat the stew  to 500 degrees in a  specialized turbine reactor that could convert the  organic trash into  liquid diesel fuel, said Steve Goff, vice president  of research and  development at Covanta. ..... This year, the company (Covanta) plans to test the system at  a new facility in West Wareham, Mass., with different types of trash  ranging from paper and food waste to plastics and tires, since municipal  solid waste is very heterogeneous. Based on the results of the tests, Covanta hopes to be able to gauge the project's economic viability by the end of the year (2010).

  I'm thinking this Crane development involves Alphakat-GEYI tech tested and tweaked by Covanta Renewable Fuels LLC, a subsidiary of Covanta Energy! |
