FlexEnergy has raised USD18m in funding from SAIL Capital, RNS Capital and Louisiana Sustainability Fund, according to Greentech Media. The Californian firm has developed a power station which can generate electricity from existing gas sources at landfills, coal mines, industrial plants and oil fields. FlexEnergy says the system can run equally well on 100% (1000 Btu/scf), 50% (500 Btu/scf), 15% (150 Btu/scf) and 1.5% (15 Btu/scf) methane fuel, and has lower nitric oxide and carbon monoxide emissions than traditional power plants. The power station combines a thermal oxidiser, a 250kW gas turbine and waste heat recovery system.
