Here's a new gasification/biochar company and process: Enventix http://www.enventixinc.com/
http://enventixinc.com/scientific_advisory_board.php To be presented at: Distributed Waste-to-Clean-Power Thursday, Feb 17 6:30p at <http://events.mercurynews.com/santa-clara-ca/venues/show/4230025-avatar-hot el> Avatar Hotel, Santa Clara, CA Enventix Clean Power from Waste Biomass Enventix's patent-pending Enpresso system is a breakthrough in the production of pure syngas for a gas turbine from mixed waste or biomass without the need for pure oxygen. It enables the conversion of waste biomass to clean, renewable electricity at the distributed scale using high-efficiency gas turbines. The two-step process first converts organics to bio-oil in a closed-loop, low-temperature, thermal batch cycle. The reformer then enriches the bio-oil with steam to pure syngas. The syngas is sent to a gas turbine or solid oxide fuel cell for power generation. Having 38% theoretical efficiency, this process offers a promising option for distributed scale waste-to- power generation. SPEAKER Dr. Monem Alyaser is the Chief Executive Officer of Enventix. Monem is an entrepreneur, materials process engineer, and expert in the design and optimization of high temperature reactors, furnaces and processes. He has over 20 years of experience in research in heat transfer and reacting flows. Dr. Alyaser is the inventor of the Enventix integrated gasification and steam generation system, and the biochar converter. Monem earned a B.S. degree in metallurgical engineering from Laurentian University, and a Ph.D. in Metals & Materials Engineering from the University of British Columbia. Sponsored by EcoGreen Group of Silicon Valley and Right Management Clean Tech Forum.
