Plasma Arc Technology

WHAT IS PLASMA?

Fourth State of Matter,

Ionized Gas Created by Converting

Electrical Energy into Thermal Energy,

Creates Extremely High Temperature /

Energy Levels,

Thermal Arc at 30,000 to 33,000 Degrees

Fahrenheit,

“Fourth State” of Matter,

Ionized Gas at High Temperature Capable

of Conducting,

Lightening is an Example from Nature.

Chemistry

Basic Chemistry

Matter is made up of molecules

Molecules are two or more

atoms held together

Atoms are held together Atomic

Bonds

Atomic Bonds have a certain

amount of energy – the Bond

Energy

If the Bond Energy is exceeded,

the Bond Breaks

Plasma Chemistry

With these high temperatures

(above 2,250 Degree Fahrenheit),

molecules exposed to a plasma are

ionized and broken into individual

atoms.

These atoms can then be re-

combined into simple compounds

when temperature is lowered.

It does not matter what molecule is

exposed to plasma, all will

dissociate.

Page 8: Coal gasification liquid fuel conversion sept 2011 master final

Plasma Arc Technology

PYROLYSIS:

Without Oxygen, materials in furnace don’t combust,

Pyrolysis – Dissociation of Compounds into their elemental atoms

and reforming them into a fuel gas-referred as “Reversed Nano

Gasification”.

Oxygen is a by-product and not part of Process versus

Incineration /Atmospheric Gasifiers that requires Oxygen (all

others).

Oxygen is not part of the process but a by-product.

8

Page 9: Coal gasification liquid fuel conversion sept 2011 master final

Plasma IS More Efficient

Plasma is more efficient than older methods of gasification.

The Carbon to Carbon Bonds are more difficult to break. This can

not be done easily in conventional Atmospheric Gasifiers due to their

low temperatures – that is why Char is formed. Plasma breaks these

bonds so all of the carbon is converted.

The Plasma Reaction is Endothermic. Therefore, all of the Energy

required for the process is available for recovery later.

DuTemp CTL Plants DO NOT Differentiate Between

the Quality of the Coal

DuTemp CTL plants do not differentiate between the quality of coal. Our concern is

the actual chain of Carbon Molecules. Our process is not combustion but Pyrolysis

or the dissociation of molecules or breaking apart of “Molecular Bonds”.

PLASMA ARC PROCESS

Section IV

Page 28: Coal gasification liquid fuel conversion sept 2011 master final

Heat Balance

The Carbon content of average Coal (on net basis) will dissociate or thermally

depolymerise into 180,000 to 196,000 cubic feet of synthesis gas per net ton, having an

energy value of 300 BTU per standard cubic foot of gas.

The heat rate for ATONN combined cycle power generating system is expected to be

about 42.277 or lower, generating 8,160 kW per ton of Coal that is processed.

The processing of 1000 tons of Net Coal per day or 41 tons per hour will release 8,118,000

cubic feet of synthesis gas per hour with a total BTU value of 2,435,400,000 BTU/HR.

At a heat rate of 7,277 the ATONN combined cycle gas turbine system will generate a

gross of 334.56 Megawatts of Electricity per hour, twenty-four hours a day.

When we deduct 104 Megawatts of this electric current to maintain the plasma arc and for

other plant requirements, we are left with available supply to the grid of 230.56 Megawatts

per hour (5,533.44 Megawatts per day).

Heat Recovery through Freon Driven Turbines are added value and can increase the power

production between 5% to 7%.

Disclaimer: All above numbers must be verified through FEED Study and Turbine selection.

28

Page 29: Coal gasification liquid fuel conversion sept 2011 master final

CO2 Capturing

Gas separation occurs 2 times during the Syngas production process: right after

gasification itself and during burning the Syngas for power generation purposes.

DuTemp Reactors will separate most impurities up front during the gasification

itself. Therefore, there are less pollutants in produced Syngas versus the

Atmospheric Gasification which cannot scrub out any impurities during first phase

of gasification and must goes through expensive clean-up in a later phases through

scrubbing techniques that are proven too costly. In the said system (by others),

produced Syngas (only up to 32% conversion rate based on the carbon molecules) is

highly contaminated with all different components including lots of CO, CO2,

Sulphur and Metals due to uncompleted process. The presence of such impurities

make it very difficult and expensive to manage the Syngas Clean Up.

In order to separate the CO2 from the smoke-stack, the plant must be equipped with:

Alkyl base Amine Unit , or

Membrane Base Amine Unit

Both type of Amine Units will shut down with the presence of impurities, especially

metals in the processed gas.

The gases produced in our power plants would not effect the performance or

efficiency of Amine Units as there are no impurities present in the gas (Impurities

are scrubbed out upfront and in the reactor and water filtration). 29

Page 30: Coal gasification liquid fuel conversion sept 2011 master final

CO2 Capturing (cont’d)

CO2 separation success rate in in ATONN systems' power generation Smoke-Stack

is 98% or better that it is far below US-EPA mandates.

All other known systems including Atmospheric Units (such as GE, Duke, Shell,

Texaco, Sasol, Conoco, Chinese Gasifies, Eastman Kodak) or those using

Atmospheric Units with Plasma Torch (Westinghouse Systems and most others

claiming they are selling Plasma Technologies(, cannot use the Amine Units

efficiently due to impurities in their produced Syngas (first phase) and in their

Smoke Stack (second phase) that will cause Amine shut down quickly. The

captured CO2 requires sequestering process due to hi contaminants and difficulties

with Amine process.

CO2 sequestering is experimental, expensive and not a viable solution for 21st

century.

When the costs of Scrubbing and sequestering are added to a project value

(CAPEX), the project financially is bankrupt.

It is our opinion that the U.S Government shall not be responsible for CO2

Sequestering or its associated costs as it will permit bad practices.

30

Page 31: Coal gasification liquid fuel conversion sept 2011 master final

How to Eliminate Nox, reduce CO2 Foot Print and Increase

Efficiency in Power Plants?

DuTemp will consider using the following blends of gases in its power

generation units:

40% Syngas

12% Hydrogen

48% Pure Oxygen

No Air is permitted in the Power Plant’s fire chamber thus no Nox.

With Using this Model, your finished products from the Smoke-Stack are:

Near Pure Water that will be recycled back to the Plasma Reactor or Hydrogen

Plant for self consumption;

Steam through use of Freon Driven Turbines, its heat is extracted to produce

electricity and also the steam will be condensed to produce more water.

Near pure CO2 will be captured by Amine Unit for sale. If no market for sale, CO2

will be recycled back to Plasma Reactor.

This balance is not possible with any other fuel for power generation except near

pure Syngas produced in DuTemp’s Reactors.

Business Model - I

Coal Conversion Plant through Plasma Arc Reactor to convert 2000 to 3000 MT/day of net

Coal and produce 530 MWH to 720 MWH Electricity, (all numbers are assumptions and not

valid until evaluated through FEED Study);

The Coal Conversion facilities will be designed for 24/7/365 operation by using one spare

additional Reactor for maintenance;

Total Reactors are either 5 x 1000 MT/day or 7 x 1000 MT/day (Size of Reactor’s processing

capacities are based on MSW. When consuming Coal, processing will be reduced by 50% of

its actual feeding capacity but the SynGas production is 4 to 6 times higher);

One Reactor is on Standby for the maintenance of Other Reactors working on-line;

Power Generation Equipment may vary, but for this assumption, we propose 3 x GE Frame-

7FA or Dual GE Frame-9FA Power Plants;

Secondary Power Generation through Freon/Propane Driven Turbines are viable and increases

the yield between 5% to 7% (additional investment required).

Size Does Matter

No Other Company is proposing gasification plants using plasma over 1500

barrels per day production from processing 300 MT/day Coal due to their reactor

size restrictions. Such an operation is not feasible to the market place and does not

impact it in any way or shape.

DuTemp proposes to start with a 50,000 barrels per day production unit through

processing 8000 MT/day of net Coal that can easily be ramped-up to 250,000

barrels per day plants using 33,000 MT/day net Coal. Such an implementation

would gets the market’s attention as it is making a statement with its operational

size.

The most difficult aspect of fuel production after producing near pure Syngas is

the “Compression Units” prior to “FT” process (Liquid Phase). This has been

solved by DuTemp while still a major obstacle for others;

Bigger Plants are more efficient due to the ability to use larger frame power plants.

When comparing the GE LM6000 with Frame-9FA, the Frame-9FA is 300% more

efficient with while consuming the same amount of SynGas.

Conversion on $$ Basis

One Ton of average Quality Coal is up to $50 USD delivered to Plant;

One Ton of Standard Specs Liquid Fuel being made from Crude Oil is about $700

USD/Ton;

One Ton of CTL Fuel with Near Pure Specs is above $1500+ USD/Ton;

GTL Products are being made from Natural Gas (NG) only at this time;

The Three Major Producers of GTL Products in the world are: Qatar, Iran & Saudi

Arabia while U.S. is a net importer of these products at this time,

There has been Limited Production of GTL in the World due to the High Price of NG in

the past;

GTL/CTL Products are Primary Additive Components for Refiners as Octane and

Cetane boosting components;

Octane and Cetane boosting processes in Refineries are the most costly and dangerous

part of refining;

Refiners are the Main Importers of GTL Fuels around the World;

CTL Plant can complement the Refiners Daily Operations and Reduce their cost of

Importation that will be passed to their consumers;

Coal to Liquid Plants compete directly with Gas to Liquid Plants (GTL);

CTL production costs are 1/3 less than GTL production costs due to lower price of

feedstock.

Strategic Storage Facilities

If and When the Investor can build and maintain 90 days fuel storage base on 5.0

Million bbls/day usage, it will become a strategic reserve in and around the world;

50 million barrels storage facility would control the prices in the market place,

Governments and Refiners may consider a monthly rental agreement for such

reserves in excess of $10.0 Million plus per month;

Storage Shelf Life: Diesel Gasoline Jet-Fuel

From Refineries: 6 Months 6 Months 6 Months

From CTL Plants: 8 Years 8 Years 8 Years

Biodegradable from Standard Refineries: NO

Other Components From Syngas Downstream Productions

The ox synthesis process is also known as hydroformylation. It involves

the reaction of CO and H2 with olefinic hydrocarbons to form an

isomeric mixture of normal and isoaldehydes.

It is an industrial synthetic route for the conversion of olefins (in the C3-

C15 range) to produce solvents, synthetic detergents, flavorings,

perfumes and other healthcare products, and other high value commodity

chemicals.

Over 2000 components can be made from these chains;

Toys made from Syngas components are free of all hazardous materials.

This is a $33.0 Billion USD per year industry.

World Energy Facts

There is only one empire in World’s Energy Markets – Middle East

CTL Plants can offset this balance when it reaches the processing capacity of 150,000 plus Metric Ton

Coal per day;

Eventually the current price of Crude will tumble with these new alternative plants;

To permanently defuse OPEC influence in world energy, Investors must investor in one million

barrels per day production of CTL components;

Total fuel consumption will be over 40% Bio-Fuels by year 2020;

Upon the first implementation, the stock market will shift its financial resources toward Coal

Gasification;

We forecast the implementation of over 1.0 Million bbl/day CTL plants by the year 2015 with proper

funding that can consume 150,000 MT/day low quality Coal;

DuTemp has manufacturing capacity to reach this goal by year 2018;

Secondary manufacturing will obsolete China as a major exporter to the U.S;

Investors can offer high paying jobs and still compete with China and S. Korea manufacturers;

Investors will be able to reach the entire North America through its Hub Networks;

Investors combined in CTL projects will create up to 2.0 Million high scale manufacturing jobs by

2018 in other manufacturing sectors when it is planned correctly;

Same combined projects will create additional 6,000,000 jobs in service industry by 2018;

Region’s main income will be based on export and the health of the economy will be guaranteed until

year 2050;

CTL combined projects when all completed, will increase the Export on manufactured products by

30%. 64

Power Generation by Others MORE PROOF THAT COAL AIN’T CHEAP

Duke wins approval for a $3100 / kW Plant

Posted by Sean Casten at 1:54 PM on 27 Nov 2007

From E & E News ($ub req’d): Indiana has approved a $2 Billion, 630 MW integrated gasification / combined

cycle coal plant.

Two Billion divided by 630 MW = $3,174 / kW

If we assume that Coal Equity Investors expect to recover their investment over 20 years with an eleven percent

return, that works out to 5.7 cents / kWh just to pay off the capital for the power plant. Add in another 3 cents or

so for transmission and distribution, and a couple cents for fuel and operating costs, and this plant will work out to

be over 10 cents in retail prices.

This in a state where the current average retail electric rate is 6.79 cents / kWh.

So why was it approved? Simple:

“In the Midwest, Coal is plentiful and low-cost, and finding ways to burn it cleanly is fundamental to

meeting our customers’ demand for power,” Duke Energy Indiana President Jim Stanley said in a

statement. The head spins.

Excerpts of the story below the fold.

Indiana utility regulators approved Duke Energy’s proposed $2 billion coal-fired power plant equipped with

advanced pollution controls about 100 miles southwest of Indianapolis.

The Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission decision followed more than two years of planning by Duke’s Indiana

subsidiary and its predecessor, Cinergy/PSI Indiana, which was acquired by duke in May 2006.

The 630-megawatt, integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) plant, which still must obtain permits from the

Indiana Department of Environmental Management, could begin construction in Knox County early next year

with an expected startup in early 2012, Duke Officials said.

Note: Please se financial figures of $3.1 Million USD per MW power plant’s cost but recently was increased

again.
