Tornado Technology

Veridium is a green technology company that is marketing an interesting method for processing biomass and other wastes in a high-speed vortex. Their website has some videos showing it in action. A more in depth article about the technology can be found here.

From the press release:
"Veridium's Tornado Generator(TM) accelerates compressed air to supersonic speeds in a closed cyclonic chamber where the air is powerful enough to almost instantly grind, flash desiccate and atomize solid and liquid wastes and other materials into micron sized powders. The Tornado Generator(TM) is a completely contained system with no internal moving parts that is powered by compressed air. It can safely and cost-effectively and rapidly process a very broad array of wastes including agricultural wastes, municipal wastes, industrial wastes, and construction and demolition wastes."
