• Super absorbent polymers can absorb 300 to 400 times their weight of water and can absorb water-‐soluble nutrients, herbicides, and pesticides. • The use of superabsorbent polymers in agriculture reduces the need for irrigation, fertilizers, and other water-‐soluble chemicals.

ethanol, croplands have been over-‐farmed in an unsustainable manner with fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. Super-‐absorbent polymers allow for greater sustainability and production by reducing the amount of chemicals required to make cropland productive.

• Super absorbent polymers can be produced as an extension of producing synthetic natural gas from coal. • Coal to synthetic natural gas conversion helps stabilize and reduce the volatility of the natural gas market due to a dependable low cost feedstock, coal. America was the first nation to scale this commercially.
