Description:
My name is Vanier Kethi-Reddy and you can find about us at http://www.floridasyngas.com/about-us.shtml
I am looking for an angle investor who can fund the following project
Background -
Syngas can be utilized to produce diesel, jet fuel or unleaded gasoline or ammonia or burn it directly and generate electric power.
Applications based on syngas are quite diverse, thus our primary objective is to produce syngas from diversified feed stock either from renewable or fossil.
Our primary focus is converting Glycerin - a waste byproduct of bio-diesel production, to syngas, but we are getting request for syngas production through different feedstock.
Our requirement
We need funding to complete our prototype that converts Glycerin, Natural Gas and dirty gas (output of coal or biomass gassification) to syngas, then from syngas to diesel.
Require 1 million dollars to complete syngas production prototype and then syngas to liquid fuel system.
There are lot of companies out there who can fund our project, but we are not looking for just funding, but a partner who can work with us on a long term basis.
Please contact me with your complete contact information and best time to contact, I will provide executive summary and we can work from there into details..
Technology -
Dr. Albin is our CT and his company ECP has many years of experience in the FT conversion of CO + H2 mixture (SynGas) into liquid fuels. Moreover, we have significant experience on fixed-bed FT reactors such as:
a) Industrial tubular units using Cobalt catalysts in Oswiecim (Auschwitz), Poland and in Novocherkassk, Russia,
b) Small laboratory FT setups in Moscow and Orleans (atmospheric and then in pressurized reactors, the both with various Cobalt catalysts),
c) Large laboratory FT setup in ECP (5-m high, 1-inch diameter, 20 bar steel with a Cobalt catalyst).
We concluded that huge multi-tubular steam-cooled FT reactors (since 1935) are not adapted for some specific GTL applications, especially at a small or medium scale. As result ECP has invented a sandwich-type compact multiple plate FT reactor.
In parallel, we have also developed our GlidArc-assisted reformers of various fossil and renewable liquids and gases into SynGas. We are now able to totally reform:
Natural gas of any composition (including H2S), Biogas (even at high CO2 content), BioMethane, LPG, waste flared gases, crude "producer gas" from biomass pyrolysis or gasification, various vegetable oils (including waste), waste alcohols, waste liquids from coke production, liquids or tars from biomass gasification or pyrolysis, molasses, glycerol from biodiesel production, waste bunker oils …
We have reached a scale of 22 m3(n)/h of continuous output of pure Syngas. Once compressed, this real SynGas is used for feeding our FT reactors installed in our facility:
o One-tube (14/12 mm) 0.25-L reactor,
o One tube (20/18 mm) 0.65-L reactor,
o Two-plates and eight-tubes (20/18 mm) 5.5-L reactor,
o One tube (60/52 mm) 6.4-L reactor.
FT synthesis temperature (can reach 400°C) is controlled as well as the output pressure (up to 40 bar) and the input SynGas flow-rate. The entering SynGas and gas products leaving the FT units are on-line analyzed using our gas chromatographs. Liquid products are collected at 0°C for further analyses. Our reactors have a test capacity up to 1 kg/h of FT fuel simulating typical industrial conditions…
Iron-based FT catalysts are advantageously adapted to these FT reactors. Such catalysts accept various SynGas mixtures at much wider H2/CO molar ratios than the Cobalt-based fragile catalysts. We are preparing and testing our own catalysts. Our real SynGas generated from various fossil and renewable feeds via ECP's reformers is used for three successive operations: catalyst precursor reduction, its activation/accommodation, and final continuous FT synthesis (several weeks). All these operations take place in the same FT reactors.
ECP believes our GTL system will be superior because of its compact packaging. For example, it can be built on barges for offshore plants or at very remote area. We strongly believe that ECP's GTL technology will be simple and "low cost".
We hope our FT-related Syngas generators, high-pressure SynGas transfer equipment, and prototypes of FT reactors may be used for designing a specific test setup at as close as possible final Biomass-to-Liquids conditions. We are also ready to perform long tests of other FT reactors and catalysts on request…
Partnership -
ECP and Floridasyngas has formed partnership in developing the technology. The research holding company is Brevard Research.
