TransAct Energy signs 10-year waste supply agreement in Guadalajara, Mexico

TransAct Energy Corp., San Antonio, has announced it has signed a 10-year waste supply and disposal agreement with Hasars SA de CV to process its municipal solid waste (MSW) collections from the Tlaquepaque region of Greater Guadalajara in Mexico.

Through TransAct's wholly owned subsidiary, Puebla ZEWOP1 S de RL de CV, the company has now secured the feedstock for its first Zero Emissions Waste Optimization Plant (ZEWOP) to be constructed in Mexico. The plant will be able to process 481,800 metric tons annually, of which Hasars will supply the same, until Dec. 31, 2027, the company says.

"We finally have our feed-stock and can move forward," says TransAct CEO Rod Bartlett. "After years and several attempts to secure a binding agreement in Mexico from a credible source, we have finally succeeded. This is the cornerstone upon which we build this plant and the company. Now we can secure a site on which to build the ZEWOP and move forward with the presale agreements to complete on the required capital."

"Hasars sees TransActs ZEWOP as the future of waste management in Mexico and the world," says Adrian Orozco Gardenas, managing partner of Hasars. "We are genuinely excited about having the MSW we collect optimized rather than placed in a landfill.

Hasars S.A. de C.V. is a privately held company with 30 years of experience in the integral management of municipal, industrial and commercial solid waste.

TransAct Energy Corp. is a Nevada organized company that owns ZEWOP proprietary technology, which is designed to take MSW and produce multiple products without any residuals returning to the environment. These byproducts include 18 different product streams, such as potable water, fuels, heavy metals, scrap metals, aluminum, glass, waxes, sugars and carbon, that may be resold back into the marketplace at a profit.

The company says it intends to develop its ZEWOP technology in conjunction with municipalities globally who are facing waste-management growth while trying to alleviate environmental impacts.
