Bradam Group LLC, Fort Myers, Florida, has completed the acquisition of assets of Elementa Group Inc., which includes the company's Steam Reforming Process (SRP), as well as Elementa’s patents for the SRP in 24 countries.
The Bradam Group was formed about five years ago to meet the demand for commercially viable technology capable of producing clean energy from organic waste.
The Bradam SRP breaks down non-recyclables by chemical reduction reactions into clean energy without combustion oxidation that is typical of incineration. Bradam Group says that it plans on marketing the SRP in North America and internationally.
"An environmental and economic game-changer," says Robert Willes, CTO of Bradam Group. "The Steam Reforming Process changes the way we dispose of everyday non-recyclable waste by reforming the carbonaceous and organic materials that is present in municipal solid waste, industrial waste and bio-solids, into Synthesis gas (Syngas).”
Willes continues, “The Syngas provides fuel for production of electricity and can be easily further refined to produce hydrogen and generation II 'drop in' diesel and jet fuel."
The technology is a combustion-free chemical reduction process with no oxidation, which yields a high quality btu value syngas. According to Bradam, the process has been tested and vetted by third party experts at its pilot plant project in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario. Using this process, 80 percent of residential and commercial waste that would be landfilled can be converted to energy.
The 200,000 ton-per-year clean energy plant also will produce enough electricity to supply power to more than 20,000 homes.
