Coal Ash Reinforced Recycled Plastic

United States Patent: 6583217

As everyone should by now be aware, the recycling of polyethylene terephthalate, "PET", plastic, from which the ubiquitous soda pop, and other beverage, containers are made, has become a truly big national deal; with some cities even installing collection bins for items made of the plastic on their street corners. 

Reclaimed PET can, in fact, be recycled back into beverage containers; but, the necessary cleaning, purification and clarification steps which are required by mixed batches of reclaimed PET consumer products make it uneconomical to do so; and, virgin material is almost always used for that purpose.

Germany Bio-Converts CO2 to Fuels and Pharmaceuticals

United   States Patent Application: 0110113681

We submit herein what we are led to characterize as an overly-specific   Carbon Dioxide recycling technology; and, we are, further, led to suspect   that it is so overly-specific because the CO2-recycling concepts it embodies   are, unbeknownst to us common Coal-mining folk who are being threatened   with Cap and Trade CO2 taxation, and being extorted by OPEC   oil, becoming so well-recognized and accepted among the cognoscenti that   those cognoscenti are scrambling now to find one way or another to   cash in on a coming CO2-recycling bonanza. 

We've previously documented numerous times, as, for several   examples, in:

West   Virginia Coal Association | Penn State Designs CO2-to-Methane Bioreactor |   Research & Development; concerning: "United States Patent Application 20110281333 - Methane   Production from Single-Cell Organisms; 2011; Inventors: Paul W. Brown, (Penn State University's   Department of Materials Science and Engineering), et.   al., Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for   enhancing the growth of single-cell organisms, such as methanogens.   The growth of the single cell organisms includes consuming carbon   dioxide to produce methane"; and:

US EPA Confirms Coal Liquids Cheaper Than Petroleum

http://www.fischer-tropsch.org/DOE/DOE_reports/600_8-80-002/epa-600_8-80-002.pdf


All the way back in 1980, synthetic liquid petroleum made from Coal was less expensive than OPEC oil.

And, that is as was officially reported, those full three decades ago, by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.

In fact, the final statement by the US EPA, in the report we submit to you herein, is:

"Sasol's success indicates that producing synthetic fuels from coal can be technically and economically feasible. The technology is available and the Sasol process - coal gasification plus Fischer-Tropsch synthesis - is the only commercially proven process that wtll produce synthetic fuels quickly, on schedule, and at predictable costs."

Coal Fly Ash Roof Shingles Better, Cheaper

United States Patent: 6695902

The Coal Ash scientist and Coal Ash marketing company we cite initially herein have appeared previously in our reports, as in:

which concerned "Boral Material Technologies Incorporated", of Texas, themselves a subsidiary of a larger Australian construction materials company, and several of their Coal Ash utilization technologies:

Penn State Designs CO2-to-Methane Bioreactor

United States Patent Application: 0110281333 

We've previously documented the work underway at Penn State University, to harness the power of a group of ancient, naturally-occurring bacteria known as "methanogens", and to use them to convert, on a practical basis, Carbon Dioxide into Methane.

Such Penn State-developed technology is exemplified in our report of:
