TORONTO (July 30, 2004) — Unisphere Waste Conversion Ltd. expects to earn about $5 million from its contract with the Quebec government to finish remediation of the Grenier, Quebec scrap tire site, according to Unisphere Technical Director Bruce Jank.
The process at Grenier should take about two years, with at least some of the rubber going as 1½-inch x 1½-inch chips for Buffalo Fuels of upstate New York in its new contract with Unisphere for tire-derived fuel, Mr. Jank said.
Also, Unisphere has just won a one-year contract to locate one of its mobile Columbus McKinnon tire shredders at Tri City Services, of Guelph, Ontario, to shred radial truck tires into 2-inch x 2-inch chips. The contract will bring Unisphere approximately $1 million and can be renewed for another year, Mr. Jank said.
