The SPEG process extracts all carbon from the waste feedstock, removes all particulates and acid gases, and produces no toxins or pollution. It not only solves our air quality and climate challenges by producing pollution-free hydrogen. That’s why our partnership with SGH2 is so important. This is game-changing technology.
