Mobile Waste Gasification Units for Military Applications

02 November 2011

Idaho based waste to energy technology supplier, Dynamis Energy has launched its WasteStation - a mobile waste gasification unit with military, healthcare and hospitality applications.

According to the company the new model is based on its 3.0 Waste to Energy Technology - a patent pending technology with the ability to process a wide spectrum of waste streams using a controlled (starved) air gasification process, which thermally converts waste products into a combustible gas.

Dynamis says that its 3.0 technology actively mitigates many potential emissions problems such as particulates and NOx, as well as many toxic volatile metals and dioxins.

Furthermore, the company claims that because the system requires no pre-treatment of waste and has few moving parts it's durable, easy to install and operate, requires minimal operator attention and thus has lower labour costs while maintaining low emissions. In addition the units can be remotely monitored.

According to Dynamis, the units have wide range of markets including small municipalities, the hospitality industry, healthcare, textiles and other industry, as well as many overseas and domestic military applications. 

Additionally, a complete line has been developed for military applications and is marketed under the name AMWAPS, which is an abbreviation for Advanced Mobile Waste and Power Stations. 

Included in the military line are the AMWAPS Alpha for waste destruction, the  AMWAPS Bravo for waste destruction with hot water generation and the AMWAPS Charlie power production unit.

Dynamis claims that all AMWAPS modules are designed to US military specifications including military fuel use.
