I believe GRC is ready to JV a pilot plant, which is the typical stage to go to next.

"Pilot plants are used to develop data that engineers need to design full scale operations. Pilot plants are used as a data collector operation where variables are modified, to produce a series of dimensionless numbers that are needed to scale up reactor designs so they can run at optimal efficiency, to avoid scaling design 'got ya' issues."

The biggest problems GRC faces are scale up issues from the lab and prototype trials. Lab data seldom scales up directly to a full scale plant and the economics are in making a salable product that will have solid demand.

After 35 years of 'noise', Tire Chef has yet to get by the lab test stage. Joe wants everyone to 'take his word for it'. LMFAO!!

For the fiftieth time, the technical or economical viability of TireChef Inc. can not be dicussed on this GBRC board.
