IST Energy Corp.'s latest invention is a portable system to turn trash into environmentally friendly electricity and gas heat. The Waltham, Massachusetts waste-to-energy company created the garbage- guzzling Green Energy Machine system, or GEM. Stu Haber, chief executive of the company, says his company hopes to start demonstrating the $850,000 system to potential customers. He hopes they'll include the Prudential Center in Boston, the Town of Lincoln, and several universities. GEM can do is cleanly power a 200,000-square-foot office building with more than 500 people. While producing clean energy, the machine diverts garbage from landfills. Massachusetts has six waste-to-energy plants capable of burning between 360 and 3,000 tons of trash daily. http://www.necn.com/Boston/Business/2009/01/19/Turn-your-trash-into-cash-/1232401630.html --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Global Change ("globalchange") newsgroup.
