Cinergex Solutions Ltd
Cinergex Solutions Ltd. was formed to develop modern waste-to-energy facilities capable of eliminating the environmental problems caused by the use of landfills for waste disposal. Our goal is to create environmentally-friendly power generation projects, while virtually eliminating the greenhouse gas emissions related to traditional landfill use. We can supply low cost municipal and/or agricultural waste-to-power plants for major population centers, on a turn-key basis. By recovering the latent energy contained with the waste products, the operator can satisfy some or all of the energy needs of those municipalities. These plants can also be connected to the national, regional or local power distribution systems with no need for large fuel unloading terminals and transformation systems. The plant's energy use versatility allows the operators to use any local energy resources and, thereby, reduce the dependency on more expensive sources of fuel. The plant's size, and the technology used in these plants, ensures that all environmental considerations are met while dramatically reducing, or eliminating altogether, the need for traditional landfills. We can development facilities geared to the processing of a wide range of waste products and our services range from plant design all the way to project management.
