Vista International Technologies recently announced that its pilot waste-to-energy (WTE) project is nearly complete. The company’s patented thermal gasifier technology uses a low-temperature gasification process that produces syngas with an inert ash byproduct from a wide variety of fuels, including municipal solid waste (MSW) and biomass.
Vista is currently finishing construction on the project’s main gasification unit. “The other major project components are all on site, so we will basically be moving the components into place, then completing the piping, electrical and water connections necessary to startup the project,” said Tim Ruddy, Vista CEO.
