HPQ'S FUMED SILICA REACTOR PILOT PROJECT: VALIDATING COMMERCIAL POTENTIAL OF THE TECH
Now that all major equipment's needed have been received, the 50 tonnes per year (TPY) FSR pilot plant now moves to the final fabrication and assembly phase; with a scheduled commissioning in Q2 2024.
'Having successfully achieved the following key milestones: Made commercial grade Fume Silica directly from quartz at lab scale using HPQ FSR technology (
Attracted the interest of major industry players that signed 3 party NDA'S [1] to test our material characteristics (
Received independent third-party confirmation that we made commercial grade Fume Silica directly from quartz at lab scale using HPQ FRS technology (
Completed an internal technical and economic study that indicated HPQ FSR's robust potential at commercial scale (
Attracted the interest of an industrial group to explore the potential of creating a commercial FSR 1,000 TPT plant joint venture (
We are about to start the most exciting part of the project, validating, at a pilot plant scale, our substantial, unique, and proprietary advantages, the ability to manufacture commercial-grade Fumed Silica directly from quartz in one step for significantly less than all traditional manufacturers,' stated Mr.
'In emphasizing the significance of the upcoming pilot plant phase,'
THE PILOT PLANT
The construction of the FSR pilot plant is set to take place in a dedicated space within PyroGenesis' facilities, featuring tailor-made infrastructure to address the pilot plant's distinctive ventilation, safety, and access needs. An allocated 4,000 sq ft facility, with a height allowance of 30 feet, has been designated to accommodate the pilot plant, which boasts an approximate layout footprint of 50ft by 30ft.
'We are rapidly moving forward with the fumed silica reactor pilot plant construction, as we recognize that numerous industries will benefit from what we believe is a truly innovative approach to producing one of the most in-demand materials', said Mr.
About
About
HPQ is developing, with the support of world-class technology partners
HPQ activities are centred around the following four (4) pillars: Becoming a green low-cost (Capex and Opex) manufacturer of Fumed Silica using the FUMED SILICA REACTOR, a proprietary technology owned by HPQ being developed for HPQ by PyroGenesis.
Becoming a producer of silicon-based anode materials for battery applications with the assistance of NOVACIUM SAS.
Becoming a zero CO2 low-cost (Capex and Opex) producer of High Purity Silicon (2N+ to 4N) using our PUREVAP 'Quartz Reduction Reactors' (QRR), a proprietary technology owned by HPQ being developed for HPQ by PyroGenesis.
