The demonstration will be held in Baguio on March 22 with meals and accommodation to be shouldered by E-Tech Japan, maker of the Magnet Robo Wakaba, which according to the said firm "processes organic wastes without fuel, combustion or electricity, but only through concentrated magnetism."
According to the invitation sent to Mayor Socrates Fernandez, the Magnet Robo Wakaba can process 12 tons of organic wastes in 24 hours and can continuously do it everyday of the entire year with "minimal space, maintenance and supervision."
The said technology also brags of its "zero emission, no noise and no pollution to the environment" capacity.
"Even styrofoam, plastics or rubber, considered as non-biodegradable can be processed," said E-Tech Japan's representative Katherin Bolodo.
"And once processed the ash can be used into soil modifier or for ceramics making," Bolodo added.
This technology is reportedly being used in Taiwan and Korea.
Talisay City has yet to decide if it would send its representative to the said demonstration. - Liv G. Campo
