Very impressive Professor Ian. You have taken your education and marketing to a new level with your Linked-In network and video presentations.
However, we need to drive more traffic to your new website and professional YouTube videos. Accelerating the rate of technology transfer is the key to success.
Without studying for the exam which I wasn’t aware of before viewing this website and viewing your YouTube channel, I am going to wing it and give you my answers:
B,C,A,B,B,B,A,B,C,B
So I am curious, anyone contact you about using the PTD and SAM for a “Continuous Stirred pH-redox Auxostat and Ethanol Stripping Integrated with Wet Fractionation, Separate Hydrolysis, Enzyme-Cell Biomass Recycling & Closed Loop Biosystems Architecture” like we discussed and developed the concept for several years ago?
I have to admit, watching your videos and seeing how you have progressed in your PTD and SAM technology made me look back at what we discussed as contained in my compilation on the above concept. It would be nice to see it come to fruition one of these days.
We need to generate some sales and get a deep pockets investor on board to speed things along!
