our technology PLASMA GASIFICATION OFFERS FLEXIBLE, EFFICIENT ENERGY RECOVERY. With over 30 years of research and development, and over 500,000 hours of commercial torch operations, WPC has developed the industry s leading plasma gasification technology a highly efficient and reliable solution. Since acquiring WPC in 2007, Alter NRG has expanded on the development of the technology with engineering and operational design improvements. Testing is also ongoing at the Westinghouse Plasma Pilot Facility along with detailed engineering and verification. The WPC technology is unique in its ability to process heterogeneous feedstock with minimal feed preparation, allowing for the blending of feedstocks such as municipal waste, construction and demolition waste, auto shredder residue, high-ash coal, biomass, liquids and slurries. This flexibility allows companies to optimize operations based on available feedstocks. The WPC plasma gasification process yields a variety of outputs such as electricity, steam and liquid fuels, while reducing harmful greenhouse gas emissions. WPC plasma gasification is a proven technology that provides a solution for the issues of today by maintaining the balance between energy and the environment. the plasma gasification process WIDE VARIETY OF FEEDSTOCKS FLEXIBLE PROCESS WIDE VARIETY OF PRODUCTS low cost gasifier high value FEED HANDLING GAS COOLING GAS CLEAN-UP SYNGAS Household Waste Industrial Waste Coal Biomass 6 Air or Oxygen Feed Plasma Torch Metal is recycled and the inert slag output is used for construction Power Ethanol Diesel Steam

THE GASIFIER ISLAND BEHIND THE SYNGAS Our plasma gasification island (pictured below) operates at temperatures of 5,500 C (10,000 F), ensuring a complete conversion of the feedstock into syngas. The inorganic materials are released at the base of the gasifier as an inert slag which is cooled and is a benign, nonleachable product that can be sold as construction aggregate. The Westinghouse Plasma gasification process is highly efficient. The overall energy recovered from the feedstocks processed by the WPC gasifier is approximately 80%. This recovered energy is a clean syngas that can be used to generate power, liquid fuels or other energy products. Of the total energy needed to run the gasification process, only 2-5% of that energy is used to power the plasma torches. Given our equipment s modular, scalable design, we can quickly install a plasma gasification system anywhere, for total project costs ranging from $30 to $300 million, making plasma technology accessible around the world.

syngas clean-up WESTINGHOUSE PLASMA PROVIDES COMMODITY GRADE CLEAN SYNGAS. The syngas clean-up process removes unwanted chemicals from the syngas, preventing harm to human health, the environment and the facility s equipment. Syngas clean-up options are based upon feedstock and syngas application (ie: electricity or liquids). Based on the plasma gasification facility s inputs and end products, the engineering, procurement and construction for the facility will design the optimal syngas clean-up system based on the specific application and configuration. One example for syngas clean-up used in a power generation process: upon exit from the gasification reactor, the syngas is rapidly cooled and particulate matter is removed by mixing with process water in a venturi scrubber and spray tower. Further removal of particulates occurs in a wet electrostatic precipitator. The temperature of the syngas is decreased and the pressure is increased to condense any moisture from the syngas. Removed process water is treated on-site to be reused within the facility. Any mercury present is removed as the syngas passes through activated carbon beds with sulfur being removed by a hydrolysis reaction and conversion to crystals. Following this process the syngas is used to generate power. VARIOUS TYPES OF FEEDSTOCKS 10

RECOVERY OF INORGANIC PRODUCTS Inorganic and saleable products can be recovered from the plasma gasification process. Ferrous iron and fine aggregate are recovered from the molten material exiting the plasma gasification reactor, in addition to crystalline sulfur produced through syngas clean-up. The separation of mixed metals occurs when the molten material from the reactor is discharged into a quench bath. This results in metal modules which are then separated from the aggregate. The remaining slag material, consisting of a wide range of elements, primarily silica, can be used in numerous construction applications and products. All materials recovered add commercial value to the plasma gasification process.
