Thermal Depolymerization Process
EXCERPT:
How it Works
CWT's Thermal Conversion Process reforms organic waste into renewable fuel oil, without combustion, incineration or toxic residue. TCP breaks down waste into its smallest chemical units and reforms them into new combinations to produce alternative fuels and specialty chemicals. The process emulates the earth’s natural geothermal activity, whereby organic material is converted into fossil fuel under conditions of extreme heat and pressure over millions of years. TCP uses pipes and controls temperature and pressure to reduce the bio-remediation process from millions of years to mere hours. TCP is more than 80% energy efficient.

By utilizing above-ground waste streams, energy produced by TCP does not add new carbon to the atmosphere, and therefore contributes to the arrest of global warming. In addition, it provides a solution for solid waste management while creating a renewable domestic source of energy without toxic emissions.

The Thermal Conversion Process, or TCP, mimics the earth’s natural geothermal process by using water, heat and pressure to transform organic and inorganic wastes into oils, gases, carbons, metals and ash. Even heavy metals are transformed into harmless oxides.

Laddering and Goldman Sachs -Tyco World Com and Enron
EXCERPT:
The Company
Goldman Sachs is a major investment banking firm that operates across the world. It is headquartered in New York, where it has been operating since 1869. Goldman Sachs has performed investment banking for such clients as Enron, Ford Motors, Tyco and WorldCom. It was divulged through recent investigations that the executives of these companies, Kenneth Lay, William Ford, Dennis Kozlowski, and John Sidgmore, respectively, received IPO shares from Goldman Sachs. The firm is suspected of having offered these and other investment banking clients' large portions of IPO shares in return for their continued business.

BP Solar and Goldman Sachs
EXCERPT:

Hudson United Capital, a division of Hudson United Bank, provided the construction and senior term loans. An affiliate of The Goldman Sachs Group provides the equity. Affiliates of Marathon Capital, LLC acted as exclusive financial advisor to SunEdison, LLC.

BP Solar Energy Solutions includes the solar system hardware and support products that ensure the systems are easily operated and monitored. BP Solar’s use of proven system designs and materials along with their 25-year product warranty gives them the ability to guarantee the energy output of the solar system making possible the offer of a fixed energy price to the end customer.

Ken Lay and Cap and Trade Meeting with Al Gore and Bill Clinton
EXCERPT:
Whatever its impact on the environment, the cap-and-trade carbon scheme is sure to boost the economic and political prospects of people and groups that are behind it. Before the company collapsed under the weight of financial scandal, Enron under CEO Ken Lay was a key proponent of the cap-and-trade idea. So was BP’s Lord John Browne, before he resigned last May under a cloud of personal scandal. In August 1997, Lay and Browne met with President Bill Clinton and Vice President Gore in the Oval Office to develop administration positions for the Kyoto negotiations that resulted in an international treaty to regulate greenhouse gas emissions.

Gulf oil spill to drag Goldman Sachs into trading scnadal
EXCERPT:

Is there really evidence here to support claims of a sinister conspiracy? Financiers Goldman Sachs not only fortuitously dumped millions of its shares in the British oil company, but has strong financial links to the chemical clean up firm tackling the disaster. Moreover, the Wall Street giant's new chairman was boss of BP only three months before.

Sections of the blogosphere are running into overdrive at the stark fact that Goldman Sachs Management (US) sold 6,025,387 of its shares in the British oil giant, BP on March 31, 2010 just days before the rupture of a pipe extracting deep sea oil. Experts variously estimate the spill to be dumping the equivalent of 5,000- 25,000 barrels of oil a day into the Gulf gravely impacting wildlife.

Changing World Technologies Wikipedia
EXCERPT:
Baskis has since left CWT, but the company has retained the rights to his patents, primarily 5,269,947 - Thermal Depolymerizing Reforming Process and Apparatus.

In 1998, CWT started a subsidiary, Thermo-Depolymerization Process, LLC (TDP), which developed a demonstration and test plant for the thermal depolymerization technology. The plant opened in 1999 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Another of CWT’s subsidiaries and affiliate companies is Renewable Environmental Solutions, LLC (RES), which was formed in 2000. It is a joint venture between ConAgra Foods and CWT to develop the processing of agricultural waste and low-value streams throughout the world.[1][2] RES, now wholly owned by CWT, has the "first commercial biorefinery in the world that can make oil from a variety of waste streams,[3] principally waste from the nearby ConAgra Butterball turkey processing plant in Carthage, Missouri. According to Biomass magazine, "CWT’s thermal conversion process is a commercially viable method of reforming organic waste that converts approximately 250 tons of turkey offal and fats per day into approximately 500 barrels of renewable diesel."[4] In addition to other problems, production costs turned out to be $80 a barrel, much higher than the anticipated $15. As of 2006[update], however, the Carthage plant was expected to generate a small profit.[3]

Meg Whitman and Goldman Sachs
EXCERPT:

In recent years, Whitman has kept part of her fortune, estimated by Forbes magazine to be $1.2 billion, in investment funds managed by Goldman, her financial disclosure report indicates. For her campaign, she's received $105,500 in donations from Goldman executives, state records show.

Major player in finance
Meanwhile, Goldman is a major player in California state finance. It has been the underwriter of $78.9 billion in bonds issued by the state since 2006, records show, second only to Merrill Lynch, now a division of Bank of America, which was underwriter of $79.3 billion in the same period.

Spinning and Meg Whitman
EXCERPT:

From 1998 to 2002, while she was CEO of eBay, Whitman helped steer millions of dollars of her company's investment banking business to Goldman, court records show.
