    The article is confusing, but remember that this technology is able to burn many different kinds of fuels. When it burns something like natural gas, it reduces NOX or CO2 emissions.

    Because Nukes can't process stuff like landfill gas. Apparently these things can process a variety of waste stream products (from petroleum refining to waste water treatment), which means that they can be used in a variety of situations. Not an end-all-be-all solution, but in the next age it doesn't look like we're gonna have one of those.
