The Prophet Of Garbage

The Prophet of Garbage

The Plasma converter is a muti-million dollar machine that is about 15 feet tall and takes up as mush space as a two car garage; Which is small for this type of machine. It can consume almost any kind of garbage by annihilating toxic materials. Plasma gasification works like the opposite of the big bang, you can get nothing from something. Inside a sealed vessel filled with a stable gas (either pure nitrogen or ordinary air) a 650 volt current passing between two electrodes rips electrons from the air, converting the gas into plasma. Current flows through this plasma creating a field of intense energy like lightning. The radiant energy is so powerful; it disintegrates garbage into its constituent elements by tearing apart molecular bonds. The system can break down almost anything except nuclear waste. The by-products are an obsidian-like glass used as a raw material for a lot of applications, and a synthetic gas. The synthetic gas is a mixture of primarily hydrogen and carbon monoxide that can be converted into marketable fuels like ethanol, natural gas and hydrogen.

I think that it is a great idea to use the Plasma Converter. Everyone can profit from using the machine. One way we can profit from using the machine is proves cheaper to take garbage to a plasma plant than it is to take it to a landfill. A Startech machine that costs about $250 million could handle 2,000 tons of waste daily, which is what a city of one million people amasses daily. Large municipalities usually haul their trash to landfills where they charge a tipping fee to dump the waste for them. The national average is $35 a ton, but it may change where people live. The tipping fee a city pays doesn’t include the price of trucking the garbage hundreds of miles to a landfill (which is very costly with the prices of gas) or the cost of capturing leaky methane from the decomposing waste. In a city with
