Kerogen Systems Inc.
Otto Schneider has a vast and extensive work experience in various industries. Otto started their career in 1970 as a Director at UOP and later served as a Director at OSISoft. In 2006, they worked as a Business Development Associate at Baker & O'Brien. Otto also founded their own consulting company, Ettanet, in 2001, where they served as a Consulting Manager and later became the Founder. Under Ettanet, they collaborated with Baker & O'Brien and provided consulting services. In 2009, Otto joined Watson Millican & Co. as an Associate Consultant, where they managed the firm's business development activities in Europe and utilized their expertise in refinery management, technical services, and technology-driven performance enhancement. In 2016, they co-founded Dragon Shale, a company focused on revolutionizing oil shale extraction and production. Otto also played an active role in Series Seed at Centriq Technology, Inc., a company offering home management solutions. Most recently, in 2020, they became the Founder CEO of Kerogen Systems Inc., working on sustainability and low carbon production in the refining industry.
Otto Schneider began their education at the University of Idaho in 1966, where they pursued a Bachelor of Science degree in Chemical Engineering. It is not specified when they completed this degree, but it can be assumed that they finished it before moving on to the next phase of their education.
In 1986, Otto Schneider enrolled at Northwestern University, where they studied Business Management. Although the end year is provided as 1991, no degree name is mentioned, indicating that they may not have completed a degree program at Northwestern University.
It is also worth noting that there is a duplication in the education information, as the University of Idaho and the degree name (Bachelor of Science or Bachelors) are mentioned with different start and end years. However, without further information, it is unclear if this is an error or if Otto Schneider pursued multiple educational paths at the University of Idaho.

Kerogen Systems Inc.
Kerogen Systems Inc. has developed, demonstrated and patented process technology for the production of high value carbon products from kerogen. Further funding is needed to commercialize the technology. The technology is designed to replace conventional crude oil processed into petrochemicals, creating a low carbon footprint alternative which benefits progress towards Net Zero targets. The process uses renewable energy, not fossil fuel, so there are no CO2 or other combustion product emissions. A Utah state grant enabled construction of a pilot plant in Vernal, Utah. Pilot plant operation has successfully demonstrated the efficacy of Keragen Systems technology. Petrochemicals are directly fractionated by the process for greater thermal efficiency. The petrochemicals are predominantly in the C8 to C40 range; linear paraffins, linear alpha-olefins, cyclical, and aromatic carbon molecules. The technology enables management of heteroatoms such as N, S and As for increased product value in agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, surfactants, solvents, polymers, asphalt and a host of other industrial materials, medical and consumer products. Those interested in the technology, the production of petrochemicals or sources of low carbon intensity petrochemical feedstocks are encouraged to contact us.
