Clean Coal Technologies Announces Commencement of Construction Phase of Pilot Plant

NEW YORK, Sept. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Clean Coal Technologies, Inc. (CCTC) ("the Company"), an emerging cleaner-energy company utilizing patented technology to convert raw coal into a cleaner burning and more efficient fuel, today announced that all major components of the pilot plant in LeFlore County, Oklahoma have been received.  With this, the pilot plant project has entered the construction phase to be carried out over the next several weeks. 

On the back of the Site Agreement executed with a major coal power station announced earlier this week, the Company has acquired ancillary equipment, including a coal screening device and a propane generator to feed and power the pilot plant.  This equipment is on route to the site.  The 100 foot X 100 foot cement slab to support the test plant has been contracted out and will built next week giving it sufficient time to cure before the arrival of the pilot plant that will be constructed at a facility near Tulsa and skid-mounted for delivery to the power plant.

"With the arrival of the components of the pilot plant, we are a major step closer to the commercialization of our unique technology," said Robin Eves, President and CEO of Clean Coal Technologies.  "Today marks the second anniversary of our filing of the patent application for the Pristine-M process.  We are very grateful for the enormous amount of work and effort on the part of many people that has made it possible for us to reach this important milestone in what we regard as record time.  That the plant has reached construction phase in just two years is testament to the enormous knowledge base of our engineers who have overcome the challenges of designing a plant capable of handling widely different coal types in marketplace where there have been many high-profile failures."
