Enzymatic Electrolysis Process
Anodyne is a Canadian startup dedicated to transforming the chemical industry into a more sustainable sector by leveraging the power of enzymes. This innovative approach merges the evolutionary advantages of biological systems with the efficiency of chemical manufacturing, aiming to transition from fossil-based to fossil-free production methods. Anodyne’s mission is to provide affordable, sustainable alternatives for everyday products, contributing significantly to the industry's shift towards greener practices.
Solidia Cement®
Solidia Technologies has patented cement technology that utilizes the same raw materials and equipment as traditional Portland cement but with reduced limestone and lower production temperatures. This innovation slashes CO2 emissions from kilns by 30% compared to conventional Portland cement production and up to 50% of the overall carbon footprint of cement and concrete. Solidia Cement® also contains low-limestone cement that achieves strength through CO2 reaction rather than water.
Plastic-Free, Biodegradable, Non-Toxic, Sustainable Materials
Plant-based materials developed by Natural Fiber Welding (NFW) that eliminates the use of synthetic toxins or plastics at any stage of manufacturing. Natural ingredients such as natural rubber, recycled cotton, recycled Mirum®, hemp, coconut husks, structural colorant, and cork are shaped and molded at the molecular level previously only achieved with synthetic materials to create products for fashion, footwear, accessories, and automotive industries. NFW currently offers four bio-based, low-carbon materials.
Sublime Cement™
Sublime Cement™ is a carbon-neutral alternative to ordinary Portland cement (OPC). Sublime’s novel cement process uses electrochemistry to extract reactive calcium (Sublime Lime™) and Silicates from abundant raw materials that are then blended into a final cement. In the electrochemical process, entire parts of non-carbonate rocks are converted into cement at ambient temperatures. The process uses carbon-free feedstocks and low temperatures, thus, Sublime Cement does not emit CO2. This cement is a drop-in replacement for OPC, meeting or exceeding construction performance standards.
