Republican 8th District candidate Hal Jordan of Charlotte, left, and Richard Tucker, president of Tucker Engineering Associates (TEA) in Locust, discuss TEA’s gasification process that converts landfill waste and other masses into methane gas with carbon as a useful by-product. Speaking of the TEA process Jordan said: “The Biomass and Coal Gasification technology demonstrated by Tucker Engineering is an innovative solution which converts waste products to clean energy without the harmful emissions of traditional energy production methods. This technology shows great promise to create jobs and meet our future energy needs, while reducing our reliance on landfills.”
