Résumé
The objective of this project is to develop a modular, transportable system that will recover the non-recyclable portion of the municipal solid waste generated in remote communities, and mechanically and chemically transform it into an energy rich gas. That gas will be used to fuel an internal combustion engine to produce electricity and heat for the community, and as such, provide an economical, renewable energy alternative to the diesel engine systems currently serving that purpose.

Program Purpose (French)
L'objectif de ce projet est le développement d'un système modulaire et transportable qui permettra de récupérer la partie non recyclable des déchets solides municipaux produits dans les collectivités éloignées, et de les transformer mécaniquement et chimiquement en gaz riche en énergie. Ce gaz sera utilisé pour alimenter un moteur à combustion interne afin de produire de l'électricité et de la chaleur pour la collectivité, et par conséquent, de fournir une solution énergétique économique et renouvelable pour remplacer les systèmes à moteurs diesel qui sont actuellement utilisés à cette fin.
