GBCE Indonesia has exclusive rights for Indonesia to the LiMaxTM coal upgrading technology developed and owned by its parent company GB Group www.gbce.com . LiMaxTM is the only coal upgrading technology in the world proven to produce a coal capable of competing in the seaborne market. The LiMaxTM technology is a low cost, additive-°©‐free, pyrolitic process which converts high moisture, low calorific value coal into high calorific value coal. The end product is a natural coal rock which is completely hydrophobic and retains the non-°©‐friable characteristics of the feedstock coal so it can be extensively rehandled and transported long distances. GBCE's first full industrial scale

LiMaxTM plant has been operating successfully in China since mid 2012 serving third party repeat customers. In 2013, GBCE successfully upgraded 3000 tons of Sumatran coal at its industrial plant in China.
