Environmentally Friendly Production of Unconventional Natural Gas Resources

Haut R.C., Burnett D., Williams T., Houston Advanced Research Center, US

Clean burning natural gas begins with producing the gas in an environmentally friendly manner. Industry has made great strides in protecting the environment while increasing natural gas production in the U.S. Producers, however, still face [...]

Small Power Cells Based on Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENRS) – a New Type of “Green” Nuclear Energy

Miley X. Yang G.H., Leon H., Hora H., University of Illinois, US

Research at the University of Illinois (UIUC) has helped pioneer a new form of cold fusion termed “Low Energy Nuclear Reactions” (LENR) where proton or deuteron reactions with a hydrated solid lattice (e.g. Pd) result [...]

SynCoal Technology Economically Reduces Emissions While Optimizing Existing Generating Capacity

Mintzer I., Sheldon R., SynCoal Partners LLC, US

SynCoal Partners LLC has developed the second generation of its patented, advanced coal-cleaning technology, (SynCoal Gen2 System). This promising new technology, called the Gen2 System, is typically located at the coal user’s site, takes low-grade [...]

Renewable Energy Strategies for non-RPS States

Hill B., Fleming S., Georgia Institute of Technology, US

Oral presentation. Renewable energy can succeed in non-RPS states. Second generation renewable fuels offer a viable market beachhead for the introduction and development of renewable energy businesses in non-RPS states, particularly the Southeastern United States. [...]

A review: Comprehensive comparison of corn-based and cellulosic-based ethanol as biofuel sources

Hoover F., Abraham J., University of St. Thomas, US

This study reviewed literature on corn and cellulosic ethanol for their potential to replace petroleum fuels. Metrics include: energy yield, cropland requirements, and pollution reduction. The key findings are that an agreement exists among the [...]

Improvement of Hydrogen Production by Immobilized Rhodopseudomonas palustris CGA009 Using Reverse Micelles as Microreactor

Singh A., Misra K., Rice University, US

Within the process of photobiological hydrogen production, purple non-sulfur (PNS) bacteria are an interesting subject of study because of their high substrate conversion efficiencies and their capability of using a wide variety of substrates either [...]
