Swindon, UK based Advanced Plasma Power (APP), a specialist in waste gasification, has entered into an exclusive licence arrangement with institutionally-funded Plasma Green Energy (PGE) to construct and operate Gasplasma plants globally utilising particular industrial wastes.

APP said that it is already a joint venture partner in PGE and holds a 20% interest.

The Gasplasma process is a gasification and plasma conversion technology that converts wastes into an energy rich synthesis gas (syngas) and a solid, vitrified product each with multiple applications.

The syngas can be used to generate electricity directly in gas engines, gas turbines and fuel cells or it can be converted to substitute natural gas (Bio-SNG) or liquid fuels.
