United States Patent Application: 0130048506
In a fairly recent dispatch, now accessible via:
West Virginia Coal Association | Ethane Cracker Realities | Research & Development;
we addressed the Wheeling, WV, newspaper article: "Wanted: Ethane Cracker; State leaders pushing for facility during gas industry convention"; wherein it was related that a company was considering the construction of a facility, in the northern panhandle of West Virginia, that would take Ethane from Shale Gas and "crack" that Ethane to form, primarily, "Ethylene", which was somewhat inaccurately said to be "the basis for the plastics industry".

US2012055954 METHOD FOR THE CONTINUOUS RECOVERY OF CARBON DIOXIDE FORM ACIDIFIED SEAWATER
This will be an excessively cluttered dispatch, even though there's not really a lot of new ground to cover.

We've presented you with a number of reports concerning Japan's Panasonic Corporation, who were once very well-known in the United States, and their development of technologies focused on the recycling of Carbon Dioxide. That is, the efficient conversion of Carbon Dioxide into such seemingly-desired substances as Methane, which we now, as seen in:
West Virginia Coal Association | Penn State: Marcellus Frack Fluids Bring Ancient Radium to the Surface | Research & Developme; concerning, in part, the report from Penn State University: "'Analysis of Marcellus flowback finds high levels of ancient brines'; University Park, PA; Brine water that flows back from gas wells in the Marcellus Shale region after hydraulic fracturing is many times more salty than seawater, with high contents of various elements, including radium";

We won't be able to explain it well, but, as one among our number here can personally attest, the major Coal Country corporate citizen, with headquarters in Pittsburgh, PA, and a couple of industrial manufacturing sites in West Virginia, the well-known Bayer Corporation, strives to maintain, as components of its company culture, a sense of mission centered on social responsibility, coupled with a drive for competitiveness based on that socially-responsible sense of mission.

This ain't really intended for posting on the WV Coal Association's R&D Blog - although they're certainly free to use it if they want to, anyway they see fit.
If they do, it will serve as introduction to some future reports in the works about China, and their development of a plastics manufacturing industry founded on Coal, a topic we begin to introduce via our closing comments herein.
And, we don't wish, or mean, to fault companies who honestly believe they have raw material opportunities which could help them to expand their businesses into new areas, bringing with them a variety of economic and employment benefits.
