WINSTON-SALEM, NC--(Marketwire - 07/13/09) - Plateau Mineral Development, Inc. (Pinksheets:PMDP - News), along with its partner, Plateau Mineral Development LLC, announced today that the firm, in conjunction with MEI and Environmental Solutions, has completed a design for a converter unit that will transform tires into carbon black, oil, gas and petroleum solvents.
The fully operational converter is the size of a truck bed. Although the demonstration unit will not be a full-sized production unit, it will, nonetheless, display its capabilities for various customers and will most likely pay for itself in the process. This production prototype unit will cost in the range of $325,000 to $350,000.
A representative of Plateau Mineral Development states, "In addition to turning waste streams into oil, gas and other beneficial products such as fertilizer and carbon black, the converter will also create carbon credits that can be sold to the many firms needing them. Therefore, it will be a worthwhile investment for the company."
