December GBR Recap - Creating Hydrogen from Plants


Last weeks Green Business Roundtable featuring Tim Erdman, CEO and Board Memeber of Virent Inc. discussed a new catalytic technology that has the capacity to reform all cellulose matter from plants into gasoline. In addition to developing a fuel source that does not rely on the banked fossil fuels, the technology developed by Erdman's company is working with a major soda manufacturer to use plant matter to make paraxylene plastics, which may replace the way all plastics eventually are manufactured. Also, Erdman has his eye on a new technology for solar panels that have proven to increase their efficiency to over 50% absorption. For more information you can visit the article posted in the Telluride Daily Planet.

 

A big and gracious Thanks to Tim Erdman for sharing these exciting developments with us and the greater Telluride Community. THANK YOU!
