Allen-Sherman-Hoff and Magaldi Join Forces to Offer MAC(TM) Dry Bottom Ash Handling Technology to US Markets.LANCASTER, Ohio Lancaster is a city in Fairfield County, Ohio, in the United States. As of the 2000 census, the city population was 35,335. It is located near the Hocking River, approximately 33 miles (53 km) southeast of Columbus, Ohio. -- Allen-Sherman-Hoff (A-S-H), a division of Diamond Power International, Inc., entered into a licensing agreement with Magaldi Power S.p.A of Salerno Italy for the design and supply of the Magaldi dry-bottom ash extraction system (the MAC(TM) System) in the United States United States, officially United States of America, republic (2005 est. pop. 295,734,000), 3,539,227 sq mi (9,166,598 sq km), North America. The United States is the world's third largest country in population and the fourth largest country in area. . The terms of the agreement were not disclosed. The MAC(TM) System is an environmentally friendly Environmentally friendly, also referred to as nature friendly, is a term used to refer to goods and services considered to inflict minimal harm on the environment.[1] method of conveying bottom ash Bottom ash refers to the non-combustible constituents of coal with traces of combustibles embedded in forming clinkers and sticking to hot side walls of furnace during the furnace working. that does not require the use of water. Its proven technology returns the heat from the ash to the boiler boiler, device for generating steam. It consists of two principal parts: the furnace, which provides heat, usually by burning a fuel, and the boiler proper, a device in which the heat changes water into steam. and provides a more complete burn of the remaining carbon in ash, which, in turn offers the potential for increasing boiler efficiency. In addition, the MAC(TM) System typically has lower operating and maintenance costs and is generally more reliable when compared to conventional bottom ash-handling systems. Because of the low carbon content and dry nature of the ash discharged from the MAC(TM) System, some MAC users are able to sell the final ash product - as a commercial grade material, converting a waste stream into a revenue stream. A-S-H currently offers ash-handling systems primarily for the utility market. The addition of the MAC(TM) System expands A-S-H's broad range of services and material handling products. "We are excited about the addition of the MAC(TM) System to our product portfolio. This addition will enable us to offer customers the most comprehensive line of ash-handling solutions for their specific applications," said Stephen Scott Stephen Scott (b.
