| Using a luminometer, the scientists monitored the intensity of the luminal-induced chemiluminescence that was caused by radicals from the pyrolisis of 2,2'--azo-bis(2-amidinopropane)(ABAP). A $80m contract went in April 1991 to Daelim for the pyrolisis gasoline plant (IFP process) and the benzene extraction unit (Krupp process). An additional benefit is that DynaMotive's patented pyrolisis technology contributes to reduced green house gas emissions and improved air quality. |
