The GEN3 PUREVAP QRR pilot plant, the first state-of-the-art prototype of its kind, includes multiple systems that must operate at extremely high temperatures, under vacuum, and under harsh conditions.

Key Points: 
  • The GEN3 PUREVAP QRR pilot plant, the first state-of-the-art prototype of its kind, includes multiple systems that must operate at extremely high temperatures, under vacuum, and under harsh conditions.
  • The Company is pleased to announce that the carbon liner substance remained intact, signifying that the system performed beyond expectations.
  • This test included a final continuous operational period of 72 hours at high power.
  • Based on these results, reactants can now be introduced into the pilot plant for the purpose of creating high purity silicon test & sample batches for distribution to potential buyers.

PyroGenesis’ Gen3 PUREVAP™ QRR Pilot Plant is Installed, Commissioned, Powered up, and Moves to Operational Testing for HPQ Silicon Inc.

This process is designed to enable the reduction of hazardous waste and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions when compared to legacy processes.

Key Points: 
  • This process is designed to enable the reduction of hazardous waste and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions when compared to legacy processes.
  • Fumed silica is a white microstructure powder with high surface area and low bulk density.
  • We are pleased to receive this final tranche of funding from a second government agency which further solidifies and validates the importance of this project to various government agencies.
  • A new plasma-based process that will allow a direct conversion of Quartz into Fumed silica, therefore removing the usage of hazardous chemical in the production of Fumed silica and eliminating the Hydrogen Chloride Gas (HCI) associated with its manufacturing.

PyroGenesis is currently working with HPQ, and/or HPQ subsidiaries, in the following three broadly defined projects:

Key Points: 
  • PyroGenesis is currently working with HPQ, and/or HPQ subsidiaries, in the following three broadly defined projects:
    Converting Silica (Quartz, SiO2) into high purity silicon using PUREVAP QRR,
    Converting Silicon (Si) into Nano Silicon powders using PUREVAP NSIR.
  • The successful milestone announced today by HPQ relates to the conversion of silicon into Nano Silicon powders (project #2 above).
  • After experiencing certain delays relating to unexpected operating issues, PyroGenesis engineering team has been able to successfully produce nano silicon materials, and this represents a significant confirmation of the original assumptions underlying this project.
  • PyroGenesis last major milestone, prior to the delivery of its first nano silicon sample, is the completion of an optimization process on the samples produced, said Mr. Pierre Carabin, CTO and Chief Strategist of PyroGenesis.
