Trends
At the inception of the company in 1989,
based in Oklahoma City, a significant level
of work was dedicated to flue gas recovery,
as well as traditional by-product sources.
Later, the company moved to South
Florida, with a focus on traditional CO2
source types including the huge expansion
in corn-based ethanol by-product.
Today, some emphasis is placed on
downstream products of the natural
gas boon, such as ammonia, natural gas
processing, and ethylene oxide, as well as
significant work in advanced biofuels and
their CO2 by-product and uptake. The
company is global in coverage, with recent
work occurring from the Middle East to
Africa, to Australia and Europe, through
the Americas. Enhanced oil recovery
(EOR)-based and sequestration projects
involving CO2 have been the forte of the
company, and are becoming subjects of
focus both for economic opportunities
and environmental sustainability. Over
the years, the company has worked with
