DOE awarding $6.5M to 9 large-scale Phase I pilot coal projects

Green Car Congress

This transformational technology uses sCO 2 as a working fluid instead of water to achieve high thermodynamic efficiencies that can potentially exceed advanced steam-Rankine cycles. The system will combine several facets to simultaneously address capital cost, energy consumption, load change, and environmental impact.

Linc Energy taking stake in aboveground gasification company; potential CTL introduction in US

Green Car Congress

Linc says the Pyromex process produces good quality syngas with almost no CO 2 gas emissions, and without the need for the consumption of high volumes of water or power. These coal areas were originally chosen by Tenneco as some of the better above ground gasification coal available in North America.
