PostHeaderIcon Atlas Landfill Energy Program



    The 200 acre landfill on Roosevelt Roads will be cleaned up and brought to Environmental Protection Agency standards, and will be the site of the aluminum pallet manufacturing plant.ATLAS LANDFILL ENERGY PROJECT The Atlas Landfill Energy Project turns collected garbage and existing trash dumps into energy-producing sources, not only of electricity but also of drinking water, salt (brine), gas and carbon-based products.Within the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, there are currently 32 dump sites that have been closed by the EPA. Only 28 are still active. All of the sites can be used and recovered.Through Atlas Landfill Energy Technology all burning is encapsulated in a high-intensity furnace. In this way, no pollution or gases will ever reach the atmosphere.The landfill is used to generate methane. New garbage continuously feeds the system and is filtered through the landfill.



    The Landfill Energy Project operates its own solar-generated energy, while the excess or remainder is sold to utilities for distribution to customers and partner companies.Landfill Energy uses sea water to generate steam to run the generators. Steam is converted into drinking water and the remaining salt is processed and purified for sale.The 200 acre landfill at Roosevelt Roads will generate up to 200,000 gallons of water per day; 120,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity; its own molten lava bricks for by-products of the landfill, and extra income from the reclamation of garbage.The Landfill Energy Project will generate in excess of 200 full-time jobs, benefiting the local community of Ceiba, Puerto Rico, and will be entirely self-sufficient.



    Here are some of the features and specifications of the Atlas Landfill Energy Project:

    • Garbage trucks deposit loads after reclaiming crystal, metals, paper, and other recyclables;
    • The Landfill Energy Furnace operates at the very high temperature of 6,000 Degrees Fahrenheit, converting garbage into molten carbon-based lava;
    • The lava is then poured into molds in order to produce carbon-based battery casings and water tank bricks;
    • Steam from the furnace is driven into a turbine in order to move an electric generator;
    • The electric generator produces electricity that is used for the furnace with excess power and thereafter sold to PREPA, the Puerto Rican Electric Power Authority;
    • The electric power line is connected to the PREPA grid to service other areas of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;
    • Cooled water is made potable and sold to the Municipality of Ceiba and other areas of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;
    • Brine is stored for use as fertilizer;
    • Salt water is fed into the furnace to create steam (See figure D in the schematic);
    • The landfill is covered and sealed;
    • Green areas are used for landscaping and organic gardening pursuant to the Atlas Monetary International Trust’s “Grow not Mow” campaign;
    • The methane from the landfill is collected through 4” perforated pipes which are drilled every 20 feet and fed into the furnace;
    • Proprietary filters collect the exhaust from the furnace and drive it into the base of the landfill through 36” perforated pipes. The pressure and heat produce more methane that is driven up to the collecting pipes;
    • A compressor is used for the methane-driven furnace;
    • A fresh water tank is built with molten lava bricks to store water on Roosevelt Roads and for eventual sale to external municipalities and customers.



    Every available area of grassland will also be dedicated to the production of organic food and hydroponically grown vegetables; complete with state of the art greenhouses, using an enriched oxygenated water filtration system. Retirees in the area who do not wish to stay at home doing nothing with their time will be encouraged to participate in horticultural projects, which will vastly improve the crop yield of healthy fruit and vegetable production; and will directly benefit from working the land by receiving a percentage of the crops for their own use and for the betterment of their families.The many enterprises combined will create over 10,000 new jobs in the next five years for Puerto Rico’s citizens. To facilitate this, the Atlas Monetary International Trust will set up an employment and information center at the downtown area of Ceiba, Puerto Rico, as well a Display Center at the Human Resources Building at Roosevelt Roads; where Atlas Triple Crown Business Services and Atlas Monetary International Trust employment opportunities will be displayed and showcased.



    At these Employment Centers, residents can apply for jobs, choose the company they wish to work for and establish their qualifications through certification and training initiatives. This operation will employ at least 1,838 people at the outset which will expand to 3,101 jobs within 18 months, in order to initially service the labor market and serve the Atlas Monetary International Trust business operations. Our Roosevelt Roads Development Corporation will add over ten billion dollars (US$10,000,000,000.00) to Puerto Rico’s economy and will provide further thriving growth as the real estate interests of Atlas Monetary International Trust expands its business.

    This development is an extension of the legacy left by Howard Hughes. It was his dream to create a world devoted to renewable clean energy utilizing power generation and transportation systems while improving the quality of life for all people by providing suitable retirement benefits, full lifetime medical coverage as well as gainful employment. This development will help to realize the fulfillment of that dream.
