$100m Waste to Energy Contract for D4 Energy

One benefit of the D4 Energy system is its capacity to use a wide range of feedstocks

D4 Energy Group has announced that Asian-Pacific Development Corporation placed an order for a 25 MW power generation system for delivery in Q2 2011.

The D4 Energy Group, a Washington, US based Waste-to-Energy (WtE) specialist announced will supply Asian-Pacific Development Corporatrion (APDC) - a nonprofit organization supporting the Asian American Pacific Islander community - with its nodal alternative energy systems.

The patented system uses extreme heat within a continuous closed loop system where the feedstock is broken down at a molecular level and high quality syngas (600 - 750 Btu) is produced along with high quality carbon. The system has virtually no emissions due to its patented process, and it is self-sustaining using less than 10% - 15% of the power produced to operate the devolatization system.

D4 Energy said that they believe this agreement validates its product line as a viable and valuable source of low cost renewable energy. 

One of the benefits of D4 Energy devolatization system is its capacity to use a wide range of carbon-based feedstock such as MSW, tyre derived fuel, plastics, wood residue, animal manure, sewage grit, demolition and creates energy, demolition debris, contaminated soils, etc. – and turn it into fuel.

“We performed due-diligence on more than 40 companies and their systems,” proclaimed Randy Avon, CEO of the Asian Pacific Development Corp. and the purchaser of the systems.

“D4 has done something no one was willing to do, namely produce gas that directly feeds a generator or turbine that in-turn produces electricity for local industry for their heating and manufacturing needs. Their cost to produce is less than $.04 per kilowatt hour, a cost-to-energy output ratio our customers need. It’s clean, efficient, reliable and most important scalable.” Added Avon

“Our nodal systems provide customers the flexibility to quickly and efficiently produce power for even the remotest of environments,” explained Don Rosacker, D4’s President/CEO. “We have taken our compact design from development to delivery with this order. Randy and his team spent months looking at our systems. They were looking to generate power in the harshest of geographic and environmental conditions, and do so with a high-output-to-cost ratio for remote areas in dire need of clean and reliable power. Our systems deliver exactly what that they need and do so quickly"
