Linc moving ahead on Wyo. gasification project

After three years of work invested into bringing an underground coal gasification project to Wyoming, Linc Energy has reached a milestone in its efforts. Linc announced this month that it received official notification from the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality that the application for the Underground Coal Gasification demonstration project is complete and ready for public notice. The company says it's a milestone which, pending the outcome of the public notice period, will permit the demonstration of Linc's underground coal gasification technology in the Powder River Basin. Underground coal gasification is a technology that has been in use in various forms for decades. The University of Wyoming School of Energy Resources is working on Powder River Basin coal gasification research.
