If you're not a tree-hugging liberal like me, then keep reading. This may interest you.
I'm a recycler. I'm aware it's not perfect, but it's conceptually a good practice. Some cities do not offer a recycling program. It may be too costly. Some people do not practice recycling. It may be too much of a hassle. Or maybe the whole recycling system is fundamentally flawed somehow. None of that matters anymore. People, stop separating your cans from boxes! Cities, end your expensive programs! It's time to just throw our trash away and if you're up to it, make money doing it.
Two Words: Plasma Converters
A plasma converter is like an incinerator. Incinerators burn at 1500 F, which produces ash, toxic pollutants, a significant amount of CO2, and an interesting aroma. Plasma converters, however, burn around 10,000 F, which makes all the difference. At this temperature, it actually breaks the molecular bonds of the stuff it's consuming. What you get are the actual atoms, such as carbon, nitrogen, and iron. These are raw materials, not ash and pollutants.
The superhot gases released are mixed with water, making steam, which is then used to spin a turbine to produce power. With a constant flow, this can produce more than enough energy to operate the plasma converter off the grid, saving money. Even better, overproduction can put power back into the grid and the power company will pay you for that. Now, you have a real business taking someone else's trash. But wait, that's not all! All those byproducts have a use in various industries. The gases themselves can be sold as a fuel. The solid slag can be used as a filler for asphalt or turned into rock wool, which is an excellent insulator - better than fiberglass.
Amazingly, plasma converters can accept just about everything: conventional trash, medical waste, organic material, toxic chemicals, you name it. Even though you may be putting in poisons or disease-infected matter, it all breaks down to its basic elements, rendering them completely harmless. The only thing the converter cannot accept is radioactive material.
Plasma converters are the epitome of recycling. Everything gets reused. You don't even need a separate recycling program to do it. Just move the waste industry away from landfills and into to plasma conversion. It's cleaner, more efficient, and profitable. If you invest, put your money here. If you're an entrepreneur, start this business. Rest assured, people will not run out of trash... even when the economy hits the floor.
