EWS Begins Tire Testing Phase of TR900 System

Marketwired
Environmental Waste International Inc. (EWS) (TSX VENTURE: EWS)
announced that it has successfully completed the calibration and
initial operation of all subsystems involved in the TR900 pilot
plant system. EWS has now received the final approval and signoff
from the Ministry of Environment confirming that all required work
prior to operation of the system is complete. EWS, through its
wholly owned subsidiary, Ellsin Environmental Ltd, has been
approved by the Ontario Tire Stewardship to receive tires during
the testing and commissioning phase of the TR900 system. The first
shipment of tires is now onsite and the tire testing phase will now
begin.
This phase of the system's operation involves all subsystems
operating simultaneously to begin breaking down tires. As the tires
break down, the off-gas system will recover the oil and then treat
and scrub the remaining gas for use as a fuel in the power
generation system. The remaining carbon and steel are then
separated and collected at the exit portion of the system. EWS
anticipates that this phase will have several milestones, all
involving ongoing modifications, fine-tuning and programming to
bring the system to a satisfactory level of operation. Once the
system is operating for prolonged periods, the final work to
optimize the process efficiency and maximize the quality of the
System byproducts will be undertaken.
EWS has also designed processors for the environmentally safe
sterilization and disposal of medical, biological, liquid and food
waste and for the recovery of usable byproducts from other organic
sources. EWS continues to explore other applications for its
technology. Please visit EWS'home page on the Internet at:
