TCG Global LLC (TCG) designs, builds, sells, owns, and operates gasification plants capable of converting any carbon-containing feedstock such as biomass, coal, petroleum coke, or municipal solid waste into synthesis gas (Syngas), consisting primarily of hydrogen (H) and carbon monoxide (CO). The Syngas produced by this gasification process is a clean, dry, flexible fuel which can be:(1) burned to create heat and electricity(2) passed through any of several different catalysts to produce fluids such as alcohols and transportation fuels, including clean burning diesel, or(3) used to supply pure hydrogen gas for multiple applications.The TCG gasification process integrates several individual technologies to convert carbon-containing feedstock to Syngas. The patents and pending patents underlying the gasification technology are owned by Thermo Technologies, LLC and licensed to Thermo Conversions, LLC, with which TCG Global has an agreement to develop, own, and operate gasification plants. TCG's technology relies on seven individual U.S. patents totaling over 800 claims, and it is also protected by a South Africa patent covering the identical technologies and set of claims.
