New Green Energy Plant to Add Jobs in Oregon

It was announced Wednesday that construction on a new plasma gasification facility Arlington, Ore. is slated to begin this summer. It will result in the creation of 28 jobs during the construction phase and 16 permanent green jobs once the facility is operational.

The facility is being built under the auspices of S4 Energy Solutions LLC, a joint venture by Waste Management Inc. and InEnTec LLC. It will convert municipal solid waste into clean fuels and renewable energy, according to a press release. It is expected to be operational by the end of the year.

“Our goal is to extract as much value as possible from waste and this project will help us recover valuable resources to generate clean fuels, renewable energy and other beneficial products,” said Dean Kattler, area vice president of Waste Management Pacific Northwest. “This project strengthens our focus on renewable energy and new technologies that use waste as a resource.”

S4 Energy Solutions was formed in May 2009. It combines the PEM technology of InEnTec with Waste Management’s experience in collecting and managing waste streams. Its goal is to double its renewable energy production to a energy equivalent of powering two million homes by 2020.
