Alex Wormser, Emeritus CEO and founder of Wormser Energy Solutions, has spent his career developing advanced technologies in the industrial and energy sectors. He got his start as a GE engineer and started his first company at 32 based on an invention that would later. become the world standard for plumbing torches. He would go on to invent eight. systems in five companies that he started and ran. The inventions run the gamut from cleaner-coal fluidized-boilers to a mild gasification system for cleaner-coal furnaces and then an airlock that enables powders to be injected into high pressures. His current project which involves using utility-scale equipment to reduce the carbon emissions from coal power plants, has been ongoing for eight years.
