Company Introduction  
Turbine, Inc.
Company Profile

ALM Turbine, Inc. is a gas turbine engine technology development and commercialization company, which has achieved a number of significant and disruptive technological break-throughs in gas turbine engine and combustion technology. ALM has developed an advanced trapped vortex combustor ("TVC"), which for most installed gas turbines, can make NOx emissions that are less than 2 ppm and CO emissions that are less than 1 ppm, with no particulates, from 40% to 100% load. These ultra low emission levels were achieved for both natural gas and liquid fuel. To ALM?s knowledge, ALM is the world?s first company to successfully incorporate, test and validate a TVC type combustor into a turbine. ALM achieved this milestone in 2003 with the retrofit of a Sunstrand T-62 turbine. The company also successfully rig tested a TVC combustor for an 85 MW GE 7E turbine, achieving less than 2 ppm NOx and less than 5 ppm CO.

ALM is targeting the gas turbine retrofit aftermarket, which is being driven by new, more stringent emission regulations. ALM?s TVC is fuel flexible. In addition to cleanly burning natural gas and liquid fuel, ALM?s combustor will also be hydrogen and syngas ready at extremely low emission levels.
