Plasco Energy Group, an innovative Canadian technology company that converts post-recycled municipal solid waste into green power and other valuable products, has selected Macrotek for the design and engineering of their commercial gas cleanup system. The process will include the removal of H2S, HCl, ammonia, and heavy metals with the use of Macrotek’s advanced wet scrubbing technologies, particulate removal processes, followed by a polishing activated carbon bed.
