lol, you guys have no scientific back up whatsoever.

SO let me guess your not unhappy with the claim this is a green technology saviour? as made a few days back by lautrec?

you are relying on ESI information which is at best of times highly streched and their intrepreation has no credibility.... also we have yet to see any feasibility which supports this claim.

my contention is the same, brown coal has a patented technology for transportation, ESI DOES NOT!

Maybe this is another reason why the IP is under legal dispute.

they once claimed coldry could be used for gasification...remember... it was only because they mis represented another companies work we even knew about it.

so how on earth can you believe anything they say without feasibility, seems to me no one cares to address these facts. More seem content with ramping how its going to 15c and how its a green technology,

CLARIFICATION: ASX ANNOUNCEMENT NUMBER 00878479
10 October 2008: ECT (ASX:ESI) wishes to clarify two aspects of its ASX Announcement
Number 00878479 of 9 September 2008.
First, the statements regarding the commercial viability of Coldry pellets are not
statements taken from the HRL Technology report. They are ESI's interpretation of the
results of HRL Technology?s analysis which was the subject of its report, the +/- 30%
Preliminary Feasibility study produced by Arup (involving >3,500 hours of work), previously
announced to ASX on 31 July, and financial modelling tools produced with Deloitte.
Second, the statements regarding the burning efficiency of Coldry are not statements
taken from the HRL Technology report but are based upon ESI?s own competitor analysis.
If you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact the Chief Executive, Kos Galtos
on +61 (0)3 9684 0888.


The victorian government doesn even know about this....
again low volume transport is a given, but high volume???? another myth with no facts to support it, independent that is.

Brown Coal Research and Development a Snapshot in Victoria

The overwhelming majority of Research and Development (R&D) into Victoria's major energy resource has been towards power generation and, in recent years, towards efficient water removal technologies.Other R&D on brown coal has resulted in low-volume, high-value commercialised applications for brown coal.
Low-Volume Applications

o

Briquettes represent the second-largest application, currently, for brown coal around the world. They are produced by drying of the as-mined coal and then forming of the dried brown coal into individual briquettes that are compacted under pressure to form a dense product that has energy content comparable to many higher rank coals.
o

Carbonised products (or chars) are made from briquettes for uses ranging from the production of char briquettes to metallurgical reductants to a feedstock for fabrication of activated carbons. These products are all high-value applications of brown coal, but their volumes are low (a few hundred thousand tonnes per year, worldwide). Of these products, that with perhaps the highest growth potential world-wide, is activated carbons and absorbents for use in environmental industries for the treatment/clean-up of liquids and gases.
o

Organic agricultural/horticultural products are another small-scale, high value application of as-mined brown coal. Here it is being increasingly viewed as a valuable raw material to produce a range of products such as soil conditioners, liquid humic acid for hydroponic farming and a range of organic fertilisers.
