Energy Conversion/Syngas Production

••Combustion: C + O2 =======> CO2 + Heat

• Partial Oxidation: 2C + O2 ======> 2CO + Heat

• Steam Reforming: C + H2O + Heat => CO + H2This is what makes our Technology the enabling technology

TC ThermoChem, INC Baltimore MD, USA 410-354-9890

The Enabling ProcessIt is NEITHER Combustion NOR Gasification:

It Is An Endothermic Steam Reforming Process

Cn Hm + nH2 O + Heat = n CO + (n+m/2) H2

For more H2 ProductionIncrease the Steam to Carbon Ratio

k CO + k H2 O = k CO2 + k H2 + Heat

Matching The H2 to CO Ratio

Alternative and Renewable EnergyStrategic Considerations

• Facilities are Capital Intensive• Investment Security - Facility, Feedstock and

Products flexibility is prudent.• Methanol is the Most Flexible and likely

Carrier. (Fuels and Chemicals)• DME is the future fuel for Vehicles & Aircraft

and Even Fuel Cells.• Production Where the Resources and the

Favorable Production Economics Are.• Shipping to Demand Regions• Conversion at Destination
