About Startech -- The Environment and Energy Company

Startech Environmental is an environment and energy industry company
engaged in the production and sale of its innovative, proprietary plasma
processing equipment known as the Plasma Converter System(TM).

The Plasma Converter System safely and economically destroys wastes, no
matter how hazardous or lethal, and turns most into useful and valuable
products. In doing so, the System protects the environment and helps to
improve the public health and safety. The System achieves closed-loop
elemental recycling to safely and irreversibly destroy Municipal Solid Waste,
organics and inorganics, solids, liquids and gases, hazardous and
non-hazardous waste, industrial by-products and also items such as "e-waste,"
medical waste, chemical industry waste and other specialty wastes, while
converting many of them into useful commodity products that can include
metals and a synthesis-gas called Plasma Converted Gas (PCG)(TM).

Among the many commercial uses for PCG, is its use to produce "green
electrical power," Gas-To-Liquid (GTL) fuels such as ethanol, synthetic
diesel fuel and other higher alcohol "alternative" fuels. Hydrogen, for use
and sale, can also be separated and recovered from the PCG synthesis gas
mixture.

The Startech Plasma Converter is essentially a manufacturing system
producing valuable commodity products from feedstock-materials that were
previously regarded as wastes.

Startech regards all wastes, hazardous and non-hazardous, as valuable
renewable resources.
