We get rid of garbage and vog, and gain power with a single installation.

Yeah, I can think of a dozen reasons why that's not going to happen--but I'm not naming them all.

This is what I was "trolling" for when I started this thread, an outside of the box idea which could help the enviroment and create jobs. Incinerating garbage/trash and producing clean energy at the same time. Maybe powering a recycleing steel mill (electric blast furnace)so all the scrap metal currently sent to the landfills could be reused, Lava is from 700 C. to 1200 C. and would with no effort incinerate any waste with no chance of it ever becomming an enviromental hazzard, but I suppose there is a huge landfill being used that is filling up with all kinds of hazzards on the Big Island.

I started out with nothing and I still have most of it.
