W2 Energy Inc.: W2 Energy and R&J Howell Investments Form Waste-to-Energy Joint Venture
TORONTO--(Marketwire - January 7, 2009) - W2 Energy Inc. (
To start, W2 Energy will be developing four waste-to-energy plants with R&J Howell -- 3 plants with 4 tons per day capacity, and one plant with a capacity of 40 tons per day. All four of these plants will use municipal solid waste as feedstock.
"We are thrilled to be working with R&J Howell," says Mike McLaren, CEO of W2 Energy. "They are helping their client's worldwide deal with waste and energy problems, and at the same time helping to improve world ecology and the world economy."
W2 Energy has developed a biomass-to-energy plant which converts each ton of municipal solid waste into approximately 100 gallons per day of liquid hydrocarbons. W2 Energy uses two patented catalysts, one which converts biomass into ultra low sulfur diesel, and which converts biomass into ultra low sulfur diesel, gasoline and industrial waxes.
R&J Howell provides financial and real estate consulting services to a variety of government, industrial and commercial clients worldwide.
"We looked long and hard before we found W2 Energy. We think W2 Energy has the best technology for converting waste into energy. We are looking forward to having the plants up and running as soon as possible," says Ron Wright of R&J Howell.
W2 Energy and R&J Howell expect to begin the projects by Q2 of 2009.
