New Green Energy Machine Turns Trash Into Treasure

It’s mobile, it’s virtually emissions free, it reduces garbage volume by 95% and it turns waste into energy – it’s the Green Energy Machine (GEM).Produced by Massachusetts-based IST Energy, the GEM originated from a U.S. military request for proposals to deal with its waste. Once deposited in the GEM, the waste is shredded, the water removed, the remaining material formed into pellets, and the pellets gasified to produce a flammable synthetic gas that can be used to generate electricity or heat. One unit processes up to three tons of waste daily, providing the energy to power and heat a 200,000 square foot building housing more than 500 people. IST says the system can reduce annual waste disposal and energy costs by about $250,000.

  In the beginning, there were algae,
but there was no oil Then, from algae came oil.
Now, the algae are still there, but oil is fast depleting
In future, there will be no oil, but there will still be algae  
So, doesn't it make sense to explore if we can again get oil from algae?
This is what we try to do at Oilgae.com - explore the potential of getting oil from algae
