Because GWECC offers proven technology solutions with years of operating experience, a performance guarantee program to back its claims, and benchmark setting environmental compliance, the GWECC waste-to-energy processes have received a momentous amount of project interest in lieu of added pressure from regulatory agencies and governments around the world to go ‘clean’ and ‘green’. Check out some of our current working projects listed below:
The proposed GWECC Virginia project is a turn-key waste-to-energy facility, that will be an addition to an existing landfill. The project has been proposed to convert all of the existing Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) tonnage generated at the landfill to produce diesel grade fuel. The facility would also create enough energy to offset if not completely eliminate the power costs of the waste-to-energy facility.
The proposed project also qualifies for the GWECC Financial, municipal financing program, which would fund 100% of the total soft and hard costs of the project.
The estimated amount of MSW generated and land filled is seasonally variable at approximately 40,000 tons per annum. Due to varying seasonal waste generation, GWECC has appropriated a technology package that will adapt to varying amounts of waste generation using our system multiples, which allows for adequate operational scalability throughout the year for maximum efficiency. Not only does this give the proposed project flexibility in managing varying waste generation rates, but will also make it easy for future expansion if necessary.
The GWECC Nevada project will be the first private project instituted by GWECC. The project is finishing the special use permitting phase and will convert waste-rubbers into three different commodities; Liquid (diesel grade) fuel, Carbon, and Steel.
Full capacity project tonnage and handling is estimated at 6 million tires a year. The plant will produce approximately 7 million gallons of fuel produced per year at full capacity with the ability to easily expand should it be necessary. The project is located within an exisiting heavy industrial rail park just outside of the Reno-Sparks metropolitan area.
The GWECC Nigeria project is a contracted project with Nigeria to produce power from Municipal Solid Waste. The project will include multiple phases of conversion technology, and technology packages which will be instituted throughout the country to off-set traditional power generation sources.
The decentralization of power sources is key goal for the country seeking to mitigate power outages as well as providing more consistency to total power production output. The project at full capacity will produce collectively 100mW.
