Leading Australian And US Universities Support Clean Global Energy Limited (ASX:CGV) In Advancing Underground Coal Gasification And Carbon Capture And Sequestration

Sydney, Aug 30, 2010 AEST (ABN Newswire) - Clean Global Energy Limited (ASX:CGV) is pleased to update the market on our company's UCG research and development activities.

Clean Global Energy Limited has entered into agreements with Australian and United States based universities to undertake further research into the technical and environmental applications of UCG and CCS.

Clean Global Energy will provide grants to the Australian Centre for Sustainable Mining Practices and the School of MiningEngineering, at University of NSW (UNSW)and the Colorado School of Mines (CSM) a state mining University in Golden, Colorado.

These Universities will focus on the further development of Clean Global Energy's advanced Linear CRIP UCG technology, in particular its application in deep coal seams where disused UCG cavities may be suitable for CCS. Other areas of focus will be on advanced water management techniques surrounding the UCG reactors and disused cavities, hydrology, low carbon emissions, and on-line support to control the UCG process in our future commercial operations.

Clean Global Energy will bring the two schools together to formulate the research program, building on complimentary skills within both faculties, as well as forming a combined advisory panel to deliver research-backed information and support for Clean Global Energy's commercial strategies and operations.

Commercial UCG activity is increasing globally in many nations including Australia, New Zealand, North and South America, UK, Europe, Africa, India and China. CGE is fast becoming an internationally recognised UCG company with projects in some of these countries. Havingleading universities, such as UNSW and CSM, providing research, development and support to Clean Global Energy further enhances our international credentials as a leading, global UCG company.
