Sustainable Power Corp Claims It Can Convert Trash to Biogas in Less Than 9 Minutes

Sustainable Power Corp. has made public claims that it takes less than nine minutes to turn municipal solid waste, also known as trash, into gas using new waste to energy technology. In addition, the gas created was tested at an independent lab to determine the quality and components. The lab, AmSpec, collected the gas from the Baytown, Texas, Sustainable Power Corp. plant and then took it to the lab to be tested using a Gas Chromatograph. The tests confirm what the companies claims, that their trademarked biogas Vertroleum® made from municipal solid waste has no carbon monoxide at all, and has the energy capacity to power the largest turbines in the world.

Most waste to energy conversion methods have several disadvantages. If small waste to energy conversion plants are used, they are not usually very efficient because of the energy needed just to operate the plant. The biofuel production may cause fly-ash, which can have toxic metals like lead or cadmium in it, from the incineration or refining process. If the fuel produced has a lower heat content, it may actually contribute more to global warming than traditional fossil fuels do. Some waste to energy conversions plants may have harmful emissions including furans and dioxins, depending on the type of municipal solid waste used and whether it has been sorted. After doing extensive research, I can not find any of these disadvantages with the waste to energy conversion process used by Sustainable Power Corp. This company uses a new patented process called the Rivera process, named after John H. Rivera who invented it. The process is similar to gas pyrolysis, but is many times more effective and environmentally friendly. Because of this process, even small waste to energy conversion plants operated by Sustainable Power Corp. will be highly efficient. There is no flyash produced, and the fuel produced has a high energy content. There are no harmful emissions either, as shown by independent testing.

The biogas produced from municipal solid waste using the Riviera process is called Vertroleum®. This biogas may prove to be one of the energy sources for the world in the future. The advanced technology used by Sustainable Power Corp. has produced a number of products that can replace fossil fuels, and eliminate environmental damage and pollution. Vertroleum® offers many benefits over traditional gasoline or diesel fuels, to the environment and the global population. The fact that Sustainable Power Corp. can turn municipal solid waste into biogas in under nine minutes is amazing, and could solve two problems at once. The earth is being polluted by municipal solid waste, landfills are overflowing, and waste management is becoming more complex. In addition, the dependence on fossil fuels and foreign oil must end, because the earth is becoming polluted, global warming is increasing, and fossil fuels are quickly becoming depleted and can not be replaced. Foreign oil also poses political and supply problems. Sustainable Power Corp. has come up with a solution that solves these problems, and has the ability to avert an energy crisis when fossil fuels run out. Waste to energy conversion plants are going to play a large role in the energy future, for both waste management and energy needs. Sustainable Power Corp. is poised to be right in the middle of this future with their new alternative energy technology, and their ability to meet global energy needs.
