General Synfuels to Test In-Situ Oil Shale Gasification Technology in Wyoming and Colorado

Green Car Congress

has secured an exploration agreement for lands in Wyoming and rights to a separate oil shale resource opportunity in Colorado. Heat from the SHA creates a radiant heat process throughout the length of the processing gas inlet conduit, causing a non-burning thermal energy front in the oil shale surrounding the hole in a predictable radius.
