SULFUR-COATED UREA The Tennessee Valley Authority is considering offering rights for either an exclusive license(s) or nonexclusive license(s) to make, use, and sell "Sulfur-Coated Urea" U.S. Patent No. 4,676,821, June 30, 1987. The grant of such license(s) shall be subject to a reservation of a nonexclusive, nontransferable, irrevocable, paid-up license to TVA on behalf of the U.S. Government to practice and have practice of the invention. For exclusive license(s), the period contemplated for exclusivity is eight years. Consideration will also be given to several exclusive licenses based on geographic areas. This invention utilizes techniques and provides an apparatus for reducing the amount of sulfur currently needed by industry to coat water-soluble fertilizer materials such as, granular or prilled urea. Production of sulfur-coated urea by this process also results in substantially higher nitrogen values. Parties interested in this technology should submit in writing a notification of interest within 30 days of this notice to W. Keith Rylant, Tennessee Valley Authority, Post Office Box 1010, CTR 1L, Muscle Shoals, Alabama 35662-1010. Posted 05/25/99 (W-SN335626).
