In the United States, there are approximately 300,000 Megawatts of electrical energy produced every day from coal-fired power plants, around 51 percent of our nation’s overall need for electrical power. This system is considered problematic due to carbon emissions released as a result of burning the coal. With the need for new energy alternatives becoming increasingly urgent, Bixby Energy Systems set out to find “game changing” technology.
But that wasn’t enough for Bixby. The ultimate goal was to produce energy from a number of carbon-based resources including wood, biomass, municipal solid waste, sewage, hazardous waste, plastics and even rubber tires.
The Bixby Process was developed to create an energy program around the world that transitions from non-renewable, fossil fuels that are in limited supply and of potential danger to our environment, to clean, renewable, consistent and inexpensive energy. The technology that entails the Bixby Process has the potential to efficiently utilize a wide variety of energy sources, both old (coal) and new.
The Bixby process -- ready right now – currently converts coal to natural gas to produce electricity without burning it and without consuming water. And since the coal is never actually burned, there is no ash to dispose of, and carbon emissions normally produced are reduced by up to 65 percent. In addition, because of the Bixby Process’s patent pending technology, more energy is extracted per ton of coal than all other current coal burning technologies.
Best of all, the cost of converting our power plants to the Bixby Process would be far less than the cost of implementing proposed carbon capture technologies, which are still under development and create a long-term storage risk.
The world will benefit from this technology as well. More than 70 nations have significant coal reserves. Bixby’s technology can provide a significantly cleaner and more environmentally responsible system for producing energy from coal and can make energy independence a reality for countries around the world.
A Cleaner, More Efficient Alternative
The Bixby Process technology can be used to eliminate the need for traditional technology used in coal-fired power plants to reduce the amount of carbon emissions by up to 65 percent. In addition it obtains more energy per pound of coal than today’s out-dated systems, and consumes no water in the process (although water is used).
The Bixby Process - One Technology, Many Applications
Power plants are just one example of how the Bixby Process can benefit the energy industry. Because the system does not require a mammoth facility, it can be used on a smaller scale:
A Revolutionary, Game Changing Technology
The Bixby Process represents a new more efficient and environmentally friendly way of using carbon based materials, particularly coal, because using it makes them cleaner energy sources. However, it is not a “silver bullet”. Coal provides an important part of the world’s energy needs today, so much so, that it would be impossible to simply abandon and replace it with more environmentally friendly energy sources. There simply aren’t any “clean energy choices” out there with the capability to do that today.
The Bixby Process allows us to continue to use coal but with a significantly reduced carbon footprint. It will reduce the impact that coal has on the environment and allow us to “buy time” as we transition from fossil fuel sources to more environmentally positive choices. It will also help us transition to more desirable energy sources like wind and solar, quickly and easily providing energy when the wind isn’t blowing and the sun isn’t shining while reducing the carbon footprint we live with today in burning carbon based materials like coal. Devolitizing biomass as a fuel will also reduce the emissions from that source even further than had been intended giving biomass an even more positive carbon footprint.
The Bixby Process will be a major contributor towards helping supply the worlds growing energy demand while significantly reducing the carbon footprint of current fuel sources that have been major contributors to our worldwide carbon emissions problem. It is here today and ready to be utilized.
