The Company has a non-controlling interest in several joint ventures, currently four primarily for licensing and operating PWS CoronaLux™ waste destruction units and one for development of hybrid scrubber systems. Two joint ventures have limited their activity to formation only, no other operations have commenced. The following is summary information on the joint ventures that have had some activity in 2018 and 2017. The Company has no fixed commitment to fund any losses of the operating joint ventures and has no investment basis in any of the joint ventures therefore the Company has suspended the recognition of losses under the equity method of accounting.
