MagneGas fuel selected for Kennedy Space Center project

MagneGas Corp., Tampa, inventor of a patented process that converts liquid waste into MagneGas2 fuel, hasannounced that a lead sub-contractor for a major Kennedy Space Center build-out project has placed its first order for MagneGas2 fuel. The fuel will be used for the metal cutting portion of the project.

S&R Enterprises LLC, a lead subcontractor for the $100 million-plus Kennedy Space Center project that will last approximately tqo years, was first introduced to MagneGas about 3 weeks ago during a demonstration arranged by a MagneGas partner, Suwannee Ironworks, the company reports. Suwannee is MagneGas' partner in a MagneGas subsidiary, ESSI of North Florida. ESSI is an industrial supply, gases and safety supplies & products provider.
After the demonstration, S&R chose to switch to MagneGas2 and requested pricing and training for its personnel (and eventually its subcontractors), MagneGas says. In addition, S&R also chose to purchase other welding supplies from the company.

Josh Collins Sr. project manager of S&R states, "The demonstration clearly showed us that MagneGas should be our fuel of choice on this, and other, projects. The faster cutting speed and smaller heat affected zone, demonstrated safety attributes and its eco-friendly aspects won us over. We also realized that MagneGas could add dollars to our bottom line, due to the faster speed of the cut, increased productivity, less fuel required… all of which could result in a quicker, less costly completion date."

"We are extremely excited to begin working at the Kennedy Space Center, the addition of this fantastic organization to our military, fire & rescue and other marquis corporate customers opens up opportunities in aerospace which is constantly driven to the cutting edge of processes, materials and innovation," says Ermanno Santilli, CEO of MagneGas Corp. "We also plan on leveraging this new relationship to explore other combustion and fuel opportunities not strictly related to metal cutting."
