Re: "...there are big boys already in the field way ahead of CTGI working on practical solutions."

"Next generation" liquid-amine carbon capture is where a good deal of research is focused. After all, the Dept of Energy endorses liquid amine as "state-of-art." In facilities burning natural gas, liquid amines have been used for decades to recover CO2. The problem with liquid-amine carbon capture is cost, especially, when applied to large applications. Much of this cost is related to engineering and maintenance challenges related to use of liquids and the energy required to reverse the CO2 adsorption process and liberate that gas.

The University of Texas is focused on "next generation" liquid amine carbon capture as a solution and writes this:

http://www.engr.utexas.edu/news/articles/200702211171/index.cfm
Absorption/stripping with a liquid amine has already been used for 70 years to remove carbon dioxide produced by burning natural gas. And a few coal-fired power plants that are small (less than 40 Megawatts equivalent) have technology to remove carbon dioxide from smokestack gas. However, the energy required for the carbon dioxide capture process has been a factor in preventing its widespread use.

The second-generation, (liquid) amine-based technology that (Dr.) Rochelle is developing could be ready to be tested on a prototype, 20 megawatt, coal-fired plant by 2009; on a 200 megawatt prototype, by 2011; and on an 800-megawatt commercial plant that matches the size of many coal-fired power plants being planned, by 2013. If the testing of the technology on these three prototypes occurs as expected, the updated technology could be available for widespread application on existing and new coal-fired power plants by 2015.
END

Meanwhile, Dr. Sayari has invented a dry amine process that appears to address the drawbacks and costs of liquid amine carbon capture while preserving, if not enhancing, its notable effectiveness. Much about the Sayari process and its advantages has been scientifically discussed on this board heretofore. Does Sayari have the best of the breed--the most implementable, most affordable solution out there at this time? It could be. It will require further development to find out. In any case, I have little doubt the vaunted Big Boys may soon be paying to Sayari's handiwork, exclusively licensed to CSMG/CTGI. Who knows? Maybe they'll even finance the development.

I think we are on our 6th wave accropding to the charts.

Is anybody familiar with Elliot waves?

Is the 6th wave the strongest?

I dont understand why there has been no follow through
on the upside as in other waves with 5to 6 up days
and marching white candles.

Is it trying to fill the gap? Or is it moving sideways
to form a handle pending EU approval for another news.

JAG,JAG,JAGGG, Is the written word dead? Is there only the Tv guide and Edger? Have you not read the Prs? Have you not seen that Amine has already been used in several formats? Have you never seen Filtration for power plants?,, for removal of mercury for example? Do you not know those those fan asssembly parts you showed, are high volume and a low pressure and medium pressure stagers for pushing the exhausts thru filtration?

If you don't know whom Sumy is, don't answer the above,, ok?
Don't look up whom Serhgy, aka sukavets, is, or his relationship with Sumy, ok? Don't rely on 4-6 months to see drafting done ,ok? Don't expect that Don can find the Funds perhaps co-matching a Jv development, ok?

Don't rely on aaaany fudamentals, just flip your way as always.

Just don't expect to get my bananas.... ok????
