✔ 3f Gasifica'on: "Value added" combusCon:
• ii-Sub-SuperCri*cal Water gasifica*on(SCW) : done quietly since early 1980s in Japan
◎(Mitsubishi Kakoki, Mitsubishi Nagasaki Machinery)(US operators seem to have
gone underground at that Bme), or recent parBcipaBon ◎(Hydromethan, Gensos nl,
Osaka Gas+): SCW can be more easily turned to liquid fuels, directly, or by reforming.
Also a few of ◎ marked companies in biomass secBon of this presentaBon seem to
offer some form of Hydrothermal combusBon of coal while Chinese state companies'
in-house system seem to be leading by combining Coal Water Slurry element(p40-43).
• On the other hand, across the board water tech advanced Russia is blocking many
innovaBve academics' much more disrupBve hydrodynamic cavitaBon related
advanced SCW tech, almost no naBve Russian commercializaBon offered?
• iii-Complete thermal oxida*on: of all organic waste with no emission ie no chimney
needed(Zeros inc/Ste Clark), microplasma link(p127,128).
•
3g Gasifica*on+Reforming/Cataly*c conversion to Liquid fuel(GTL: Gas to Liquid),
Methane to gasoline etc: Close relaBon or oXen same tech as wood/Coal to liquid
fuel: Succeeding commercializaBon on & off since 1940s(Germany, Japan+), then
extensively in 1960s-90s South Africa: at one Bme almost all gasoline was made from
coal via Fischer-Tropsch(F-T) process(Sasol+), More recent entry(Accelergy, Fluor,
Thyssenkrupp Industrial Solu'ons+), ->> cont
