Different Clean Air Technologies
Wind is a renewable energy source that emits no pollution. It is the fastest-growing “green” energy in the U.S. and provides light to the Statue of Liberty. Wind farms—clusters of huge windmills—produce electricity by using the motion of their blades to spin a shaft connected to a generator. Experts estimate that the electricity created in 2006 by America’s wind farms will displace some 15 million tons of carbon dioxide. Over five million acres of forest would be needed to absorb that much CO2. Some people oppose wind farms because they occupy large tracts of land and can sometimes harm birds, but most agree that their environmental costs are much lower than those of fossil fuels.

The Company will operate the CAVD at the Palm Harbor, Florida location with joint venture partners to prove out the output models of energy from set amounts of feed stocks. NRGN has a corporate goal of securing large scale plant purchases along with its own plants over the next several months. Each CAVD plant is projected to be based upon a base 50 ton throughput of the waste. The wastes can be combined, but all have achieved or are expected to achieve similar production of oils, gas, and solid output for commercial sales.
