Pilot Plant
CVW™ hydrocarbon recovery technologies were installed at the CanmetENERGY demonstration pilot in Devon, Alberta, and piloted on an integrated and continuous basis at industry-platform scale with tailings provided by an SDTC Consortium of CNRL, Syncrude and Suncor, later joined by Imperial and Total E&P. CVW CleanTech also established a minerals facility at CanmetENERGY and conducted piloting at large-scale minerals test facilities in Brisbane, Australia. Results from this extensive demonstration piloting have been verified by oil sands operators (Syncrude, Canadian Natural, Suncor, Total E&P), engineering firms (SNC Lavalin, Worley Parsons, Stantec Consulting), and government agencies (Sustainable Development Technology Canada, Alberta Energy, Natural Resources Canada, Alberta Innovates). Piloting results confirm hydrocarbon recoveries and commercial quantities of high quality valuable critical minerals (zircon and titanium), improved tailings remediation and improved hot water recycling.
