I got a call from a group today that has several very large projects in development in South America and Mexico. One of their processes was taking MSW and converting it to diesel fuel. He described parts of the process and said that they take the basic compounds and hydrogenate them to diesel fuel. My question was where do you get the hydrogen and the power for the process? His quick answer was after a few minutes of conversation asking details of where these inputs come from resulted in his having to go to the chief engineer and ask.
There is also a big question of what to do with the massive amounts of char left over from the process and he acknowledged that bio-char wasn't an option, so I told him to convert it to hydrogen and then treat it so that it can be a spectacular fertilizer and sell it for big bucks. That got some attention for sure.
The primary reason he called me was they had designed and gotten the money for a waste to energy gasification project and then figured out the gasifier supplier couldn't deliver. Happens a lot I told him.
Thermogenics has signed a $40mm joint venture agreement for a MSW to power plant in Africa. Funded there.
Sincerely,
Leland T. "Tom" Taylor

Ha ha! At one get-together, one of the volunteer organizers spent about half an hour rationalizing her theft of various IP, and then asked me for details on mine. Luckily I was smart enough to be struck dumb.

Yes Leland! One I attended I was publicly dressed down by one of the "Leading" Bioenergy Research Gurus because I hadn't patented our breakthrough and he needed the information to fix his own systems...
Never had a single prospect close a deal from a conference...the conference organisers at the prices charged seem to do OK though! Still if you can afford it not a bad social occasion...so maybe other reasons to attend.
Cheers,
Peter

Yeaaaa! I have never made a sale at a conference, often don't get returned phone calls from supposedly excited prospects.
