Flint Lab Inc.
Flint Lab Inc.(CEO Hyouk Jin Yun) has developed the world's sole combustion devices(stove and heater) that use plant oil and waste cooking oil as a fuel.
Flint Lab's combustion technology began in 2006 when Dr. Yoon Sung Wan(Current Technical Director)'s studies about cleaner and more sustainable alternative energy to solve air pollution was going on. Especially, he investigated to solve the user 's diseases resulted from the use of wood fuel in developing countries.
The animals and plants oil is sustainable and carbon-neutral, thus have the endless possibility of environmentally friendly alternative fuel.
This technology of Flint Lab allows the oil to be burned completely without additional conversion and can be used as new renewable energy, from personal cooking products to industrial heating products. It's less expensive because the fuel is collected from the abandoned plant, or waste cooking oil. In this way, we can replace fossil fuel or biomass, which can prevent deforestation and reduce air pollution. The flint's combustion technology in such wise maximizes the advantages of the animal/plant oil or waste cooking oil and improves the compatibility as a next generation's alternative energy technology.
Flint Lab is currently working on a global business that can use green energy in developing countries and China.
