New Energy Solutions has developed alternative fuel technology that includes:-Providing clean energy designed to power systems which can be fueled from renewable energy sources instead of fossil fuels-Developing and integrating green energy technology concepts in the field of alternative fuels created from biomass products -Changing the outlook for biomass energy systems to further protect the company's enviroment

Energex is a producers of residential and industrial wood pellet fuel in North America. Wood pellet fuel is an environmentally friendly and renewable source of energy that is manufactured from sawdust and other waste wood.

InEnTec manufactures equipment used to transform waste products into energy. The Company's plasma-enhanced melter equipment rearranges the molecular structure of waste and transforms it into alternative transportation fuels, electricity and products used in manufacturing.

Tethys Research, LLC is a Bangor, ME based company that has received a grant(s) from the Department of Energy's SBIR/STTR program. The abstract(s) for these grant award(s) are provided as well since they provide insights into Tethys Research, LLC's business and areas of expertise. This project will develop processes to use the enzyme in pulp mills and forest biorefineries to produce raw materials for chemicals and biofuels. It also clones the enzyme for cost-effective large-scale production. Microorganisms that make novel enzymes to help separate wood components in an efficient and environmentally friendly manner have been developed. This project isolates one of these enzymes so that an enzyme-assisted pulping process can be designed to economically use forest biomass for chemicals and fuel.

Enerkem produces advanced biofuels and renewable chemicals from waste. Its exclusive technology converts non-recyclable municipal solid waste into methanol, ethanol and other widely used chemical intermediates. The company operates a full-scale commercial facility in Alberta, as well as an innovation center in Quebec. The company was founded in 2000 and is based in Montreal, Quebec.

Capturing Carbon Dioxide to Fuel the World The amazing technological and economic progress achieved in the past 100 years has largely been fueled by hydrocarbons. However the sustainability of this progress is now coming into question, both due to the rise in greenhouses gases caused by hydrocarbon combustion and the predicted depletion of fossil hydrocarbon sources. Sequesco's goal is to develop technologies which help enable hydrocarbons to continue fueling human progress, while alleviating the problems of greenhouse gas emissions, growing geological scarcity, and the drawbacks of agriculturally produced biofuels. The company's guiding principle is to use microbes as master chemists in sustainable systems that serve the dual role of sequestering carbon dioxide and producing transportation fuels.
