Plasma Trash Plant


Here is some amazing stuff that has so much potential in the future. As landfills continue to grow in size, we are stuck with the environmental issues and the buildup of in-disposable waste. With this amazing plasma technology, we can now vaporize trash, and at the same time create energy to power homes. A plant in St. Lucie County Florida will use 10,000 degree plasma to vaporize trash 1,500 tons of trash a day, and harness enough energy to power 50,000 homes. The plant will also be able to melt down inorganic materials to be reused for other applications, such as in roadbed and heavy construction. Overall a pretty amazing technology.
