Eden Innovations — Australian Technologies Competition (September 2014)
10 slides from Eden Innovations's conference presentation, Sep 16, 2014
Slide 1: Australian Technologies Competition: Carbon Nanotube Project
For personal use only AUSTRALIAN TECHNOLOGIES COMPETITION Carbon Nanotube Project Greg Solomon Chairman 16 September 2014
Slide 2: Carbon Nanotube Project
Carbon Nanotube Project UQ/ Eden Developed Pyrolysis Production of CNT from Natural Gas For personal use only (Eden 100%) CH4 + Catalyst + Heat = C + 2H2 • Produces only CNT + H2 - no CO2 • Multi-walled carbon nanotubes: tensile strength -200-300 times steel approx 17% the weight of steel high
Slide 3: Eden's CNT Commercial Production Capacity
Eden’s CNT Commercial Production Capacity For personal use only • Eden’s Commercial Scale Reactors in Denver, USA • Capable of producing <40 tonnes of CNT/ year • Low cost catalyst production • High quality / low cost CNT 16 September 2014
Slide 4: Primary Market – CNT in Concrete
Primary Market – CNT in Concrete For personal use only • CNT Concrete - 0.5 % CNT : 99.5% cement /tonne concrete < 30% increase in compressive strength of cement < 14% increase in tensile strength of cement • Product - CNT enriched liquid admixture- added during batching • Benefits - stronger, t
Slide 5: CNT in Fresh Cement Paste
CNT in Fresh Cement Paste For personal use only Build-up of dense, hydrated cement on surface of CNT (top right) • CNT provide: nucleation points for cement hydration nano-scale fibre re-enforcement. • CNT facilitate denser, stronger and potentially more durable concrete. • Other larger-scale fi
Slide 6: CNT in Fractured Hardened Cement Paste
CNT in Fractured Hardened Cement Paste For personal use only CNT bonded in hardened cement paste after fracturing Note: ends of CNTs are well- bonded within cement gel and provide anchorage Monash University Helium Ion Microscope Image 16 September 2014
Slide 7: Primary Market - CNT in Concrete
Primary Market - CNT in Concrete For personal use only • Global concrete/ cement market- US$450 billion/year Approx. 1 tonne of concrete produced annually for every person on Earth Cement production creates 5% of annual global GHG emissions CNT concrete could reduce cement requirements by >15-
Slide 8: Future Large Scale CNT Production
Future Large Scale CNT Production For personal use only • 1,000 tonnes p.a. CNT capacity reactor- $50million capital cost sufficient for > 1.7 million tonnes concrete -7% of Australian market • 10,000 tonnes p.a. CNT capacity -Natural Gas Fired Power Stations 500MW station uses >100,000 tpa of na
Slide 9: Challenges and Marketing Plans
Challenges and Marketing Plans For personal use only Challenges • Extension of shelf life of admixture development underway • OH&S concerns resolved CNT in low concentrations (< O.5%) in liquid admixture CNT used in low concentrations and is firmly bonded with cement Marketing Plans • Global man
