Gasification

What is Gasification Gasification is a chemical reaction caused by heating carbonaceous material in an oxygen-starved environment , resulting in incomplete combustion that drives off carbon- rich gases. Gasification is not Incineration

History of Gasification • Developed in the early 1800’s to convert coal to gas • First uses were for heating and street lighting -1807 • 1,000 of installations across the world. • Large Scale • Small Scale • Companies with Gasification Patents • Lockheed Martin • Shell • Conoco Phillips • GE • Siemens • Westinghouse • Today’s gasification technology is: • Cleaner – environmentally friendly • Economically Sound • Scalable

Types of Gasification Technologies Traditional Gasification Processes - Utilize some oxygen or air in process • Fixed Bed • Fluidized Bed • Entrained Bed Plasma Arc • Utilizes electrical arcs to gasify material • New • Little history • No scalable operations Pyrolysis – Occurs in the absence of oxygen • Utilized heavily in bio-mass operations • Proven technology

Gasification – Sample Process Material Preparation : Material Collection : Material Preparation : De-packaging, Size Centralized Processing Blending and Drying to Reduction Center, Food Waste, 80% Solids Green Waste, Municipal Sludge, Manures, Other Syngas Heat: Returned for Drying Electric Generation : Bio-Char: Gasification : Supply Parasitic Load, Water Purification, Soil Output – Biochar, Syngas, Reaming Sold Enrichment Heat

Revenue Streams from Gasification 1. Tip Fees – disposal offset 2. Bio-char • Additive to high quality fertilizers • Carbon sequestration • Water remediation 3. Heat • Steam generation • Pre-drying processes • Greenhouses • Water heating 4. Electrical Generation • Colocation with large electric consumer • Power purchase agreement with utility

What we do Leverage our partners intellectual properties, technologies and service strengths to develop processes that provide fiscal, social and environmental benefits for our clients and investors. Alosolutions’ main area of focus is in the development of alternative energy sources derived from bio-gas, waste gas, bio- mass, bio-solids and other waste streams. Alosolutions’ technologies include enhanced gasification, liquid separation, syngas modification and several other support services.
