X-Message-Number: 16618 From: "Trygve Bauge" <> Subject: Cheap liquid nitrogen in Norway by 2005, from Aker Maritime - Emission free gas power Date: Thu, 21 Jun 2001 15:20:26 +0200 Last year I told the Cryonet about Aker Maritime's plans to build emission free gas powered power plants, that would produce huge quantities of inexpensive liquid nitrogen as a side effect. They will cool the air to produce pure oxygen that is used to burn the North Sea gas without pollution, as a side effect they will get a lot of liquid nitrogen and a lot of cold CO2. Anyway, last year the government that supported such power plants lost its case in our parliament and was replaced. As of today the new labour government suddenly turned around on the case, and has issued a plan to build at least one such power plant by the year 2005. Sincerely, Trygve Bauge Ps. Aker Maritime is one of Norway's largest privately held companies. I have kept in touch with Oscar Graff their main engineer on the above project for several years now, and he seems open for the idea of supplying liquid nitrogen to other ventures like cryonics. In the mean time we are stuck with a price of about USD 1.2/per liter for liquid Nitrogen from their competitor Norsk Hydro. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Oscar Graff" <> To: "trygve.bauge" <>; "trygveb" <>; "N914TJ" <> Sent: Monday, April 23, 2001 4:44 PM Subject: INFO: Aker Maritime - Emission free gas power > > > Ladies and gentlemen, > Please find enclosed news regarding the HiOx Project.
