| IET has sold
several commercial PEM™ units throughout the world to
process a wide range of waste materials. These systems are
briefly discussed below.
Allied
Technology Group, Inc. (ATG)
Allied Technology Group, Inc.'s (ATG) Mixed Waste Treatment
Facility in Richland, WA used a G200 PEM™ system for
treating a combination of hazardous and radioactive waste,
some of the most difficult material in the world to process.
(The facility is in cold standby.)

Asia
Pacific Environmental Technologies (APET)
Asia Pacific Environmental Technology's (APET) Hawaii Medical
Vitrification (HMV) facility in Honolulu, HI uses a G100 PEM™
system to treat hospital and other medical waste from the
Honolulu area, destroying all pathogens and biohazards and
generating electricity from the syngas.
Fuji Kaihatsu
The G300 PEM™ system was installed at Fuji Kaihatsu’s
facility in Iizuka, Japan (near Fukuoka). The system was designed
to process up to 10 tons per day (TPD) of plastics and industrial
waste into electricity in a clean (low pollution), non-incineration
process.
Kawasaki Heavy Industries PCB Demonstration Unit
This G100 system was installed at Ryukyus University on the
Japanese island of Okinawa by Kawasaki Heavy Industries (one
of IET's representatives in Japan). It was used to demonstrate
to the Japanese Regulatory Authorities that the PEM™
could safely process PCBs and meet Japanese destruction requirements.
The demonstration program was executed in mid 2003 and lasted
for two months. Following the test and receipt of approval
from the Japanese authorities for processing of PCB contaminated
materials, the PEM™ system was dismantled and shipped
to another location near Kobe. A paper on the test results
is available upon request. See Certifications section.
Kawasaki
Heavy Industries Asbestos Demonstration Unit
In 2006,
Kawasaki moved and installed the G100 system in Harima, Japan,
for a demonstration of asbestos destruction. This very successful
test was completed in June 2006. The system will now be moved
to the KHI facility near Osaka, Japan, and reinstalled for PCB
destruction on an ongoing basis.
Global
Plasma in Taiwan
Global Plasma of Taipei, Taiwan installed a G100 system for
treating medical waste and batteries. Commissioning of the plant
was completed in March of 2005. The system easily passed the
Taiwan EPA performance test for environmental emissions. This
is the first system using a dual-fueled diesel engine for combustion
of the syngas. The power generation system uses a Miratech SCR
with urea injection for NOx reduction and an oxidation catalyst
for CO control.
BioPure Systems in Malaysia
A 1 TPD PEM™ System is being installed by IET's Malaysian
representative BioPure Systems in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
It will be used as a testing and demonstration facility for
the Malaysian market.
