Ramp up of clean coal technologies, whether to produce synthesis gas for petrochemical feedstock (Coal to Chemicals and Gas to Liquids) or Clean- Coal Power Generation, which utilize large quantities of oxygen produced by air separation plants that use our equipment. Expanding Canadian Oil Sands utilize large quantities of oxygen and hydrogen and enhanced Oil Recovery requires large quantities of nitrogen or carbon dioxide. Both enhanced processes present additional opportunities to utilize our equipment.
