  • Much of what we throw out gets incinerated, adding to Asia's air-pollution burden-but a small, smokeless incinerator is making its way around the region. The WSJ's Ramy Inocencio took a trip to the 2013 Eco Expo Asia to witness its debut in Hong Kong.

    I think left over ash is a much lesser problem then the smoke and trash they have! Ash can be used for building materials, for example, used as a mixing compound. This idea needs to be supported by the Government! What is the Government doing these days besides erecting mobile phone towers?

    if you direct the smoke into water chamber then the water capture the carbon and gaining heat at the same time give rise to steam to humidified atmosphere and so use together with the sun would create rain when needed or stop rain when we want sun

    See I think the attitude is there-if you can make just a dent rather than try something which is so utopian that it causes bad ramifications. I.e. govt today is only interested in using social media to its advantage. This invention while maybe small in nature still contributes something positive w/o ruining the life of consumers.
