PAWDS eliminates more than 400 pounds of diverse trash material per hour, including the plastic that traditional ship waste systems could not destroy. PAWDS reduces all the ship's trash -- plastic, paper, food and wood -- to vapour, a key aspect, as without a waste destruction system of this calibre, the ship would be forced to reduce operations, returning to port to off-load trash.
