Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

Carbonova Corp

$50,000.00

Scale-up of carbon nanofibers producing prototype

FY 2020-21 · 2020-04-01

Summary
This project aims to derisk Carbonova's new technology in producing carbon nanofibers/nanotubes from greenhouse gases. In particular, during this project, the prototype for the scale-up process will be developed for generating carbon nanofibers. This project targets to advance the engineering design of the scale-up process, build the prototype in the modular form and test the prototype. Eventually, this project will result in a system with a higher capacity and higher rate of production for CNF production.

Description
This project aims to derisk Carbonova's new technology in producing carbon nanofibers/nanotubes from greenhouse gases. In particular, during this project, the prototype for the scale-up process will be developed for generating carbon nanofibers. This project targets to advance the engineering design of the scale-up process, build the prototype in the modular form and test the prototype. Eventually, this project will result in a system with a higher capacity and higher rate of production for CNF production.
Description (French)
Ce projet a pour but d'atténuer les risques liés à la nouvelle technologie de Carbonova qui consiste à produire des nanofibres/nanotubes de carbone à partir de gaz à effet de serre. En particulier, au cours de ce projet, le prototype du processus de mise à l'échelle sera mis au point pour générer des nanofibres de carbone. Ce projet vise à faire progresser la conception technique du processus de mise à l'échelle, à construire le prototype sous forme modulaire et à tester le prototype. À terme, ce projet aboutira à un système à plus grande capacité et à un taux de production plus élevé pour la génération de FNC.
