AuraSource Qinzhou was formed to process coal in China using the AuraCoal technology. The facilities will also be utilized for additional research and development in furthering the technology.
AuraCoal is designed to remove sulfur and ash from the coal pre-combustion process. The removal helps to eliminate harmful emissions. The proprietary clean coal technology produces a coal water mixture, which contains only trace amounts of sulfur and ash, which constitutes an alternative to oil or natural gas. The AuraCoal technology can be used for multiple applications such as industrial boilers, power plants, iron and steel mills.
Philip Liu, CEO of AuraSource, said: “Through our wholly owned entity, AuraSource Qinzhou, we will be able to commence construction of a pilot plant utilizing the AuraCoal process. Additionally, this enables us to apply for patent protection of our unique process in China. Through AuraSource Qinzhou, we plan to partner with Chinese governmental clean energy research and development projects which encourage these efforts through direct investments and grants.”
AuraSource focuses on clean energy technology development. It develops and licenses the AuraFuel and AuraCoal processes. AuraSource is researching and developing other technologies related to hydrocarbon clean fuel (HCF). The company plans to sell and license products and services related to its HCF technologies in China and the US.
