EEC Energy Systems

ZWES has entered into a strategic partnership with EEC Energy Limited of Thunder Bay, Canada, and has obtained an exclusive manufacturing licensing agreement with the company.

EEC developed a prototype high-energy thermophilic anaerobic digester whose modular design is excellent for agri-business and municipal green waste application. Its main competitive advantage is that, in comparison with mesophilic processes, it reduces processing time from 28 to 180 days down to 4 to 7 days; it increases CH4 (methane) yield from 50 to 70 percent and more; it has a virtual pathogen kill rate of 100 per cent; and it uses low value product to produce useable energy.

Important markets are also emerging for both compactors and digesters in Mexico, South America and Europe.
