Company history: Prior to last Nov. 30, IsleChem's founders were employed at Occidental's Grand Island technology center, now home of ISLECHEM. Rader was a senior vice president in research and development, Kunze was technical director and Rowe was director of commercial development. When OxyChem targeted the tech center for closing in a cost-cutting move, the three proposed keeping the business going by forming a new company and buying the building along with the expensive analytical and testing equipment. bizjournals.com Posted by: Rawnoc Date: Tuesday, May 25, 2010 6:21:03 PM In reply to: the big guy who wrote msg# 44805 Post # of 44842 I agree, we should be ignoring the claims of Islechem, a former subsidiary of the $70 billion NYSE highly credible OXY that is run by former management from OXY and was named business of the year by the chamber on congress and spent 4 months examining and testing the machine. That's not good enough. We need to turn to anonymous internet experts on the internet. Is there anybody out there?

I also doubt that anyone else on this board does... siliconinvestor.com it is not good enough to say JB says so, or Islechem says so. Especially now.... ANy chemists/ oil industry experts here?
