Grant: Applied Research and Development Grants - Level 1
Southern Alberta Institute of Technology
$25,000.00
Suspension and Removal of Paraffin Wax
EF 2018-19
Résumé
Green Earth Energy Solutions specializes in readily biodegradable plant-based chemicals that reduce operational costs, mitigate dangerous procedures and improve efficiency for oil and gas applications. The intellectual property of their unique products is protected. Green Earth Energy approached SAIT to investigate and identify the conditions under which the product is best able to suspend and remove paraffin wax from carbon steel, and examine the reuse potential of the product following treatment. Once commercialized, the company's plant-based product has the potential to remove wax from equipment under variable operating conditions and help address a costly industry issue.
