TORONTO (Aug. 2)—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-by-1½-inch chips for Buffalo Fuels of upstate New York in its new contract with Unisphere for tire-derived fuel, Jank said.
Also, Unisphere has just won a one-year pact 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-by-2-inch chips. The deal will bring Unisphere about $1 million and can be renewed for another year, Jank said.
