Recycling/Incineration/Plasma



  A new technology, plasma waste conversion being used by Startech Environmental, has just recently become available.  This method may make the whole incineration process a moot point.  If anyone is interested they can write to Startech at startech@netaxis.com or visit their website listed in the press release I've included below.  The press release is about radioactive remediation but I understand from other releases that the technology gobbles up landfill waste too.
  
  I'm no expert, I'm just trying to toss in a contribution to the discussion.  Does anyone see any shortcomings to this system?
