Valorizing Industrially Produced CO2 : A Reliable and Cost Effective Solution for Carbon Capture and its Conversion to Marketable Products.
The goal for Enerkem is to produce fuels and chemicals that are useful at the location they are generated. As part of this strategy, they have developed a technology to convert CO2 into syngas (hydrogen and carbon monoxide) using catalytic conversion. With the ability to create syngas at varying ratios, Enerkem can produce a variety…
Production of Dimethyl Carbonate (DMC) from Captured CO2 and Methanol
E3Tec Service has developed a safer alternative to produce dimethyl carbonate (DMC) using CO2 sequestration rather than the toxic chemical procedure currently used. A highly sought-after product used in the manufacture of polycarbonates, DMC can be used to produce solvents, fuel additives and lithium ion batteries. The process employed is energy efficient, environmentally responsible and…
Direct Catalytic Synthesis of Acetic Acid from CO2 and CH4
The current method for producing acetic acid uses carbon monoxide (CO) and methanol, and emits CO2. The Gas Technology Institute (GTI) has developed a technology that uses CO2 from GHGs and natural gas (CH4) to produce acetic acid. The innovation in GTI’s process removes the need for purchasing methanol, provides a net reduction of CO2…
Inedible Egg Powder Project
Sparks Eggs, division of Golden Valley Foods Ltd. sorts, grades, and packages fresh eggs to retail, food service and commercial partners. During the grading process a portion of the eggs are determined to be inedible. This category of product is not able to be sold to market generating waste. With a commitment to sustainability and…
Development of a prototype for digestate water treatment and fertilizer value-add opportunity for on-farm feedlot anaerobic digestors (AD)
Rimrock Renewables Limited Partnership along with Rimrock Cattle Company Ltd. (Rimrock) are investing in a first of a kind, innovative system within the Agriculture and Agri-Food sector that is designed to produce value-ad fertilizer, peat, cattle bedding, and water recycle product for Alberta-based Greenhouses, Mushroom Farmers, Organic Farmers, Conventional Farmers, and Cattle Producers who are…
Carbon Capture and Mineralogic Sequestration – Addressing the World Wide Epidemic on a World Wide Scale
Blue Planet has developed a technology platform called Liquid Condensed Phase (LCP) that creates usable green building products that contain sequestered CO2. Their LCP solution provides a more efficient, cost-effective method for CO2 emission control for industries from, cement, power, and petrochemical industries. At the same time, it creates a highly flexible primary raw material…
Empower Calgary Scale Up Facility
Northstar Clean Technologies Inc.has developed a proprietary technology, the “Bitumen Extraction and Separation Technology”, known as BEST, that recycles waste asphalt shingles into their basic components of aggregate, fibre and liquid asphalt. The BEST technology separates all the components of asphalt shingles, providing a 100% waste diversion from landfills. Empower Calgary is expected to process…
High-efficiency CO2 capture using novel fibres in the production of soil conditioning agents and polymer replacements
CCm has created a unique process that fixes CO2 to base fibre materials to be used for soil conditioners, fertilizers and other polymers. The process delivers a highly efficient permanent capture of CO2 and creates high-demand products that can help create a positive long-term environmental impact. During the production of soil agents, CCm activates a…
RBW HDPE Plastic Recycling
RBW’s HDPE Recycling Project will install and commission a recycling system for high-density polyethylene waste. This material will be processed to create recycled plastic products to be used by the same customers who produced the waste, to reduce Alberta’s Industries’ reliance on virgin plastic materials and create a circular solution for plastic waste.
Carbon Cycle
The premise for Carbon Cycle’s technology is to permanently capture large amounts of CO2 in a process that produces precipitated calcium carbonate (PCC) and ammonium sulphate fertilizer. With a new technology, Carbon Cycle’s process uses dramatically less energy and creates a carbon-negative outcome rather than the current carbon-positive methods currently used. With low energy use…
