[Terrapreta] Kingsford licenses Hawaii charcoal patent

[Tom Miles]

As the Honolulu Advertiser states:

"Kingsford now becomes the third company to license the technology, but the
first with a household name that can generate exposure for the obscure
technology."

 

Where's the product?

 

It's probably being used in a high value application like pet deodorant.

Carbon Diversion - U of H's first licensee - is already selling turnkey

Also, be sure to spend 2 minutes watching the video webcast on the
Advertiser website that contains a really good look at the commercial scale
equipment they are using and an overview of its operation.
