Summary
EMS’s technology addresses the needs of the resource extraction industry by leveraging unique features of soils, to create biogenic minerals to catalyze hydrocarbon destruction. Solar powered and local water sources, allow EMS technology to provide cost-effective, carbon efficient, solutions for industry’s looking to improve their environmental performance. Each EMS technology ecosystem deployed saves 30,000 t of soil, 1,000 kt CO2-equivalents emitted and removes over 300 t of spilled hydrocarbons from the environment.
EMS has partnered with SDTC, to deploy, validate and scale EMS-technology such that EMS’s technology can be used across the world. The SDTC sponsored project will transform EMS technology to a data-based, internet-of-things solution to today’s environmental challenges. In so doing, EMS’s technology will transform how organizations, large and small, manage their environmental liability.

Description (French)
La technologie d'EMS répond aux besoins de l'industrie de l'extraction des ressources en tirant parti des caractéristiques uniques des sols pour créer des minéraux biogènes qui catalysent la destruction des hydrocarbures. L'énergie solaire et les sources d'eau locales permettent à la technologie d'EMS de fournir des solutions rentables et économes en carbone aux industries qui cherchent à améliorer leur performance environnementale. Chaque écosystème technologique EMS déployé permet d'économiser 30 000 tonnes de sol, d'émettre 1 000 kt d'équivalents CO2 et d'éliminer plus de 300 tonnes d'hydrocarbures déversés dans l'environnement.
EMS s'est associée à TDDC pour déployer, valider et mettre à l'échelle la technologie EMS afin qu'elle puisse être utilisée dans le monde entier. Le projet parrainé par TDDC transformera la technologie d'EMS en une solution basée sur les données et l'internet des objets pour relever les défis environnementaux d'aujourd'hui. Ce faisant, la technologie EMS transformera la façon dont les organisations, grandes et petites, gèrent leur responsabilité environnementale.
