About Airborne Clean Energy

The Corporation and its Business
Airborne Clean Energy (Airborne) has contributed to the development of a patented process which effectively and economically reduces the multiple forms of pollution caused when burning coal or other hydrocarbon fuels to generate electricity (the Airborne Process™).

This unique and proprietary process allows power providers to burn any coal while reducing the environmental impact. By employing the Airborne Process™, power producers substantially reduce their polluting emissions and can transform pollutants, through Airborne's proprietary regeneration process, into a high-quality granular fertilizer.

Traditional pollution abatement programs require multiple processes to remove multiple pollutants. Traditional processes are also accompanied by high capital, maintenance and operating costs. The Airborne Process™, which meets or exceeds 100% of current and pending environmental standards, economically removes multiple pollutants including acid rain producing SO2 and SO3, smog producing NOX, and mercury (Hg).

The Demand for Pollution Abatement
Coal-fired power plants generate the majority of electrical power in the United States, and a significant part of electrical power in the rest of the world. Although coal is relatively plentiful and inexpensive, concerns about the emissions from coal powered generation plants have resulted in the implementation of stringent environmental standards that increase the cost and limit the use of coal in generating electricity.

Regulations in Canada, the United States, the European Union and beyond are forcing large reductions for all emissions.

The Opportunity
There is a growing challenge for energy providers to produce affordable and cleaner power. Increasingly, the demand for affordable energy by both developed and developing nations and concerns about environmental sustainability are in conflict, forcing difficult trade-offs between economic growth and environmental protection.

Proven coal reserves are estimated to be sufficient to fulfill current rates of consumption for another 220 years. The Airborne Process™ provides utilities the opportunity to burn this inexpensive and plentiful fuel source while at the same time reducing its environmental impact.

No other proven technology that can match the effectiveness of the Airborne Process™. The Airborne Process™ has been shown to effectively remove an unprecedented 99.5% of SO2, SO3, NOX and Hg from coal emissions. There are currently many large coal fired electrical generating plants in North America and throughout the world which do not do an effective job of removing SO2, SO3, NOX or Hg from their emissions. By employing the Airborne Process™ not only can producers reduce harmful emissions, but they can do so at a lower cost than alternative emission control options. The opportunity for Airborne is clear!
