John we will be receiving a new investors pkg. shortly. I think it will go into greater detail than my previous post. That was just a quick rundown of the process. I would not want to speculate or pre-judge the process untill I know more about it. It looks like to me that this type of plant will process around 240-288 tons per day of raw material. Tipping fees will vary depending on what part of the Country were talking about. It looks like this type of plant will produce about 24 tons a day of end product.I don't know how much they sell it for but I would assume it depends on the protein content. But remember these plants can and will be constructed in various sizes. I think we will know alot more about the process in the next couple of weeks. If I can get anymore info. on this I will pass it on. BTW I believe all or most of the info. in the new pkg. will also be availible on our new Web Site. Hopefully we will see the site in about 4-6 weeks. Regards > Bugsy <

MMMMMMM...The finished product sounds yummy, wonder If I can order some by the case!

John, Looks like TTRIF has a much better process. The million dollar question is, can IECS build these plants cheaper? I think so. The reason for my optimism is that it takes a lot of equipment for the Thermo Process to hold and convert say 300 tons of waste for 36 hours, as compared to the quicker process that IECS uses which hopefully ties up less equipment and therefore cost less to build. As you mentioned, it may also be more economical to run a ROP plant at lower volumes (like for a hog farm). A Thermo Master Plant seems to me to be ideally suited for converting municipal sludge, where the volume levels are high and constant.

In a nutshell they smash the foodwaste, sterilize/cook it, then stabilize it at room temperature so it can be stored and used later without it starting to rot. I would be willing to bet that during the sterilization process, most of the water is evaporated out of the slurry. This would explain the 1 ton per hour finished product for 10-12 tons per hour of incoming waste.
