EPC Fabrication, CNC, 3D, AM, Powders, Modular Mobile Design

Most of All, Mobile, AirIN/ Air/OUT

Power Gen, Next Generation MUST MOVE, AS NEEDED. The same mobile ability is required across the EPC integrated line-up.

This includes All Plant & Product Design & Development. If Engr., Construction, M.E. Is not currently Modular, & Air Mobile, that new design will be requested on site. 

This becomes a components Pilot Plant demand, which is designed to be as OMSR as possible.

There is only one hold on the land & that is feedstocks. The soil is a vital part of that Bio Growth demand.

BTL/GTL must be able to move. If it doesn’t fit inside the aircraft with room, it’s not needed. 

EMs demand mobility. They play a vital role in the Future on Power Gen. This is also true for Alternative BTL/GTL, Water RE, & Green Chem.

The Key design demand is

STACKABLE

SCALABLE

MODULAR

MOBILE

open, modular, stackable and reconfigurable (OMSR) REQUIRED!

Perfect Example of Next Gen…

Cost Effective Design

Loan Guarantee Authority MUST CUT RED TAPE. As CAPEX & OPEX FALL Project Studies Move Forward

Advanced Fuel Energy Projects, demand Studies that require NEXT GEN Proven Finished Work. That work must be cost effective and integrate seamlessly to reduce both CAPEX and OPEX.

Proven GTL is in place as NEXT GEN designs are both TESTED & built for less. BTL most be made smaller and more cost effective across the total PROJECT DESIGN.

CC Power is moving forward with excellent advances. There is a HIGH PRESSURE & HEAT STREAM DEMAND, that must be addressed with reduced numbers.

Every system must be able to ramp up as needed and must be modular. If your BUILD TEAM is not MODULAR, The OLD Bloated Model is TOO LARGE & Costly, & OUTDATED.

NEXT GEN FAB IS REQUIRED IN THE FIELD. ALL BUILDERS ARE ASKED TO ALLOW THIS OPTION, as effective operations demands on site working solutions, in real time.

WET STORAGE & PROCESSING are ON TRACK as Studies are completed.

7 F Studies are moving forward following A&D Work. All A&D Heads are invited to updated data.

(LAER) Lowest Achievable Emission Rate objectives, SHIFT

We have concluded OLD Power is NOT LAER effective. Our Clean Energy Solutions no longer have old plants in mind. We are SHIFTING to Combined Cycle, Small Scale, with more details provided to builders & operators, open to Next Gen Research.

Green Sciences will bring a new Green Ecosphere

The primary task has always been to make this new green design concept both cost effective, & green jobs oriented.

People require a working wage. If your green design doesn’t talk about putting people to work
what real long term benefit is it for the people. It must be People, Plant, Profit,

NOT…

Planet, People.

That Green Jobs, Profit Oriented,
Sustainable Model required a total Energy redesign, making all old plants outdated and obsolete.

Old energy profit operations will not seek a slow phase out, via remodel, or restructure.
These old energy profit plants & properties are very much a major part of the current job market.
This fact makes older energy core assets very much a part of the present day landscape.

This affords Old Energy both profit and core energy assets, & the luxury of dictating the green design pace, in large part due to much needed jobs.

Only when those jobs are replaced by a green operations that beats old energy in
Price as well as clean sustainable design will any long term green future truly take hold.
Until then most efforts will be regarded as green washing for PR purposes only.

Window dressing to appear the part, & excellent green review of current efforts seen
Here… http://www.greenwashingindex.com/

It is the Green Sciences that will bring real green change, as truly sustainable change might be
Supported & achieved.

That green future can now be seen in it’s first phases.

These first phases will not be viewed by many as being clean or green enough.

Old Energy will own a very large part of the first phases, end results.
What they choose to do with that work, will depend on who is leading, each profit center.

Change is possible even with an old energy mindset, however limited the view.
Will they want to spend the capital needed to phase out their own, old plants?
With time, Perhaps.

With, or Without them, the first phase begins today.

They are no longer needed.

Research Design begins the first phase draft in…

The question will always be how long will it take to build? The answer is impossible to hear and restricted by Major PE, and yet working examples can be seen around the globe. These examples are Rural and found in non-profit paths.

Here the efforts are viewed as for profit, which limits and holds private, both the details and the study, while knowing the final build must be BOP wise.

You can find and assist the non profit working examples but you must know where to look. You must begin to see BOP, as something that matters to you.

The short answer. Far longer than anyone might first guess, simply because their scope will be too small. Only if you begin to see it as a life long dream, will you begin to see the scope of truly sustainable design, much less BOP development on a macro level.

In fact the answer is as difficult to provide as the research work itself.
From research to 1st Phase design, just getting to this day…

Over 20 years and way past first projections. Could we leap forward? As BOP awareness shifts the mindset, YES.

1st Phase Design to model, all subject to major PE and Team Building.

From today to endless studies, searching the globe over, to find, what might become ideal.

Model to development, also subject to both research, redesign, & PE.

From the end of the studies to the end of the models, to the end of design phases.

My own goal. In this lifetime.

To guess the answer then, is to guess longer than you might imagine, & then triple it.

Just to get to this day, over twenty years later, 1st Phase Design,
Feels like a miracle to me.

If you made it here, Think Remediation by Green Chemistry, & BOP working examples.

The build-outs will be outdated by the time they are finished and the funding model is all wrong.

The Talk is of concern for estimated construction cost increases.

This is the very reason why you don’t build big in the first phase of advanced research, design, & development.

This is also why you don’t put all your energy design into one system.

We have been talking about this for years and yet few have had the insight to stop and listen to what we are offering to potential working partners.

Start small and stick with what has been working. Make a profit. Then grow from that operations awareness.

If you don’t know what has been working. We can’t help you. Our 1st Choice potential working partners know & have been doing it for years.

A few words on the subject. Your FEEDSTOCKS are wrong. Much less your Temp.

If selecting this Feedstock and Temp….

It is Green Chemistry that comes from the Thermo Conversion Aspects that should be considered. It is the Separation Tech that should be Advanced if you value the true profit potential as we do.

This is old, as in 2009 but it will get you up to speed on the basics, allowing for a new Biomass Fluid Catalytic Cracking (BFCC) Catalysts

Excellent People. Worthy Goal. How you don’t get cost over runs with this type of large scale objective is beyond our, proven small scale, thinking.

This is not some quick fix green race. Rather it is the Energy Business that is attempting to go green over time.

If you forget that long term fact, you will not be around, nor will your investors make money.

Case in point. The talk is of being able to use old energy refiners. Sure the integrated in the mix would like to see this, however the green in anyone who has been in this research work for over 20 years, might say, Wait a minute. Shouldn’t the Hydroprocessing REACTOR be ADVANCED?

Shouldn’t the design of the New Plant be ADVANCED. If all you are doing is talking about a MORE COSTLY Old System the cost over runs are going to be there because the old systems will also need to be advanced.

This was shown as far back as 2004. Where were some of these new green thinkers then? Even old energy Pros know they need to change how they are building their systems. That means cost overruns every time. So much so, that no one wants to go first with any new build because they know it will be outdated before it is finished, see the latest, coming out of Cal

Bottom line is this. Even the Old Energy Systems must be advanced. What is it going to cost and how long is it going to take? Don’t let anyone blow smoke up your butt. No one knows, but you can bet it will cost more and take longer than anyone attempting to promote any new idea truly understands.

Hence the reason you don’t just focus on BTL & GTL. There is far more to consider and if you are not understanding this yet. We can’t help you.

More than Willing to offer up this. It is going to take far more than any new start up can raise with some IPO. That is nothing more tnan a VC pipedream. When we say this is Large Scale, we are addressing the scope & demand of integration. This is the very reason we have been doing this with our own dime. Expect 25 years of R&D with very little hope of Rev., while in research & design mode. Energy is only one piece of a much bigger puzzle. That puzzle must be integrated, closed looped, & designed with a permaculture understanding and awareness. Old Energy doesn’t even have a CLUE in that regard and doesn’t want one either. Anyone attempting to bring green solutions to old energy design models is barking up the wrong tree and will face overruns strong enough to kill a HORSE.

The old energy integrated can afford that. Can you?

National Biomass Map

National Biomass Map

Notice the three GTL aspects at the bottom of the map page.

We would add two more. Seems some have forgotten old energy designs must be a part of the economic equation
in their bio based economic business model evaluations.

This is directly related to wholesale production cost demands which are extensive in all biomass systems.

This the reason why all of our Green sciences research is both, BTL, & GTL, oriented. If you don’t have Water Remediation added to the mix, your plant is outdated and not truly integrated. If Algae is not a major part of that remediation, you’re not thinking sub systems integration.

The Two Sinks for Co2. Algae and Agri-Char

If your bio-refinery is truly integrated then you must be advanced in both Algae growth and Agri-Char for the purposes of CO2 Sinks.

It is no longer Carbon Capture and Storage. CCS. It is rather CCSC. Carbon Capture, Storage, & Conversion.

If your not converting CO2 into products, you are missing the clean, green, integration boat.
