ExxonMobil, Pratt & Whitney join to develop gasification technology

摘要

ExxonMobil has entered into an agreement with Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne to develop technology to convert coal, petroleum coke or biomass to synthesis gas, which could facilitate the use of carbon capture and storage to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from power generation. Under the agreement, ExxonMobil Research and Engineering and Pratt & Whitney will work together to develop and test new gasification technology to improve efficiency and reduce the cost of converting raw materials into gas.
