■ Before: 100%
■ After: 36% |

The REP was designed to achieve 100% combustion of all materials presented for processing. It achieves 2500° F in the primary chamber. This is a dramatic improvement over SOTA incinerators which only achieve 1100° F. |
■ REP:
Operating Range:
2500° F (1370° C)
Optimum Destructive Termperature:
2200° F (1200 ° C)
■ SOTA:
Incinerator Operating Temperature:
1100° F (590° C) |

In the combustion process, two of the most important factors are dwell time and temperature. The REP delivers a 4.2 second dwell time, thereby negating the formation of smoke and green house gasses. A SOTA incinerator delivers an inadequate 1 second. The REP thermal treatment process is designed with the destructive criteria for every known carcinogenic matter (excluding radioactive material).

The REP achieves a volume reduction of 83.6%.
|
■ Before: 100%
■ After: 16% |
 |
In the secondary chamber, the REP achieves 3000° F, while a SOTA incinerator achieves only 1,500° F. The REP achieves results that the SOTA incinerator is not able to match due to its design limitations.

The REP has a staggering impact on waste space requirements. For 100 tonnes of waste, the REP outputs only 28 m3 of clean, inert mass. When combined with recycling, this volume is reduced to just 17 m3. In contrast, a traditional landfill solution results in 400 m3 of landfill, which can only be reduced to 300 m3 with recycling.

100% landfill: 400 m3
Landfill with recycling: 300 m3
■ REP
REP without recycling: 28 m3
REP with recycling: 17 m3 |
