Environmental Waste International Tire Recycling Technology
Demonstrates Significantly Reduced Carbon Emissions
AJAX, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Feb 10, 2014) - Environmental
Waste International Inc. ("EWS") (TSX-VENTURE:EWS) (the "Company"),
a company specializing in eco-friendly systems with proven patented
technology for the breakdown of organic materials, today reported
an additional advantage of its process, namely a significant
reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
The results reported by Pinchin Environmental Ltd. demonstrate
that EWS's Reverse Polymerization™ process and proprietary
microwave delivery system significantly lower carbon dioxide
emissions compared to the two most commonly used waste tire
recycling options, incineration and crumb rubber recycling.
According to the Rubber Manufacturers Association approximately 45%
of waste tires in the United States are incinerated and
approximately 29% are converted to crumb rubber.
Based on the results, Environmental Waste's technology emits
significantly lower amounts of carbon dioxide compared to the
actual and avoided emissions associated with each alternative. The
disposal of one million scrap tires via the EWS process emits
12,166 tonnes fewer carbon dioxide equivalents compared to
incineration, and 3,136 tonnes fewer carbon dioxide equivalents
compared to the production of crumb rubber. In a nutshell, EWI's
process significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions, the major
cause of climate change, when compared to the alternatives.
Daniel Kaute, CEO of EWS, stated, "This analysis validates our
belief that we can evolve into one of the leading "green"
industrial companies. It is another signpost in our march to
commercialization."
The analysis was conducted by Pinchin Environmental Ltd., one of
Canada's largest environmental, health and safety consulting firms.
