Load municipal solid waste into this machine and get power and high grade fuel in return. Sound like a dream? It's being tested by the army. They have 72 guaranteed foreign contracts so far, but none in the U.S.

For a couple of years, Green Power, Inc (GPI) has had a 100 ton per day model plant in Pasco, Washington that turns municipal solid waste (MSW) and other like feedstock such as biomass into high grade fuel. This technology enables the replacement of limited, fossil-based oil with fuel that comes from garbage, which can be thought of as a form of free, sustainable energy, because as long as there are people on the planet, there will be waste. What's more, usually communities pay to get rid of it, so it is a cash-generating feedstock that with GPI's technology produces a cash-generating product, self-powered by the process as well.

Green Power Inc. has had third party testing of their 100 ton/day plant by the United States military (Air Force, Navy, Army and Marines joint effort). The results of the tests that they ran last November, which are now being published for the first time here, confirm the claims that the company has been making via their own measurements regarding the output capability of the plant.
...
Imagine this plant converting 100 tons of trash each day into 1240 gallons of Naphtha, 3700 gallons of Kerosene, 6900 gallons of Diesel and 3000 gallons of Fuel Oil. And even the ash can be used for cement or asphalt. In addition, you are producing 1 MW of electricity to sell to the grid 24/7, running three shifts per day to keep the plant going, employing approximately five people per shift.

The City of Edmonton is working with Enerkem of Quebec on a syn gas methanol-to-ethanol demonstration project aimed at using 90% of landfill waste, making it the first such plant in the world.
