ProSelect Gas Treating Inc. recently unveiled a new carbon capture system for the greenhouse industry.
The GC6 Carbon Capture System is able to harness carbon dioxide (CO2) from biomass combustion emissions and convert it into fertilizer to grow climate friendly greenhouse crops.
“Never before has there been a technology that can benefit the environment and the bottom line for greenhouse operators like the GC6 Carbon Capture System can,” says Victor Krahn, CEO and co-founder of ProSelect Gas Treating Inc. “Our goal is to help reduce our industry’s dependence on non-renewable fossil fuels while creating a sustainable legacy that supports locally grown food.”
The $5 million project was funded in part by the B.C. government through the Innovative Clean Energy Fund ($2.24 million) and the Government of Canada through Sustainable Development Technology Canada and IDTC Fund ($1.72 million).
ProSelect Gas Treating Inc. is a joint venture between SunSelect Produce, an established family owned Canadian company with over 25 years in the greenhouse industry and Procede BV, a leading Dutch engineering firm specializing in innovative green technologies.
