Slide 3: Carbon Nanotube Project
Carbon Nanotube Project UQ/ Eden Developed Pyrolysis Process-CNT/CNF 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 - 200-300x steel approx. 17% the weight of steel high elec
Slide 4: Eden Energy CNT/CNF Production
Eden Energy CNT/ CNF Production For personal use only Hydrogen Product Catalyst Feed Reactor Natural Gas Supply Hydrogen CH4 Carbon CNT’s Carbon Product
Slide 5: Eden's CNT/CNF Production Capacity
Eden’s CNT/CNF Production Capacity For personal use only • Eden’s Commercial Scale Reactors in Denver, USA • Scalable, modular reactors • Capable of producing <40 tonnes of CNT/ year • Low cost catalyst production • High quality/low cost CNT/CNF
Slide 6: Concrete
CNT in Concrete For personal use only • Significant global research conducted over past 5-8 years • Monash University (Melbourne) - Collaboration Ongoing collaboration since 2011 • US Consultant (Denver, Colorado) Assisting Hythane Co in testing and developing US market Is arranging initial US
Slide 7: Concrete – Results to Date
CNT in Concrete – Results to Date For personal use only • CNT Concrete - 0.5 % CNT : 99.5% cement concrete < 30% increase in compressive strength of cement < 14% increase in tensile strength of cement CNT act as nucleation points for cement hydration resulting in denser, tougher, less permeabl
Slide 8: 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 f
Slide 9: 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
Slide 10: Concrete - Benefits
CNT in Concrete - Benefits For personal use only • Benefits – denser, stronger, tougher cement Mixed into liquid surfactant and added during batching process less concrete needed Less (or perhaps no) steel re-enforcing abrasion resistant- lower maintenance costs denser, less permeability
Slide 11: Concrete - Applications
CNT in Concrete- Applications For personal use only • Global Applications Abrasion Resistance o road and bridge surfaces o pavements , warehouse/factory floors Increased Compressive and Tensile Strength o high rise buildings, bridges, Lower Permeability o dams, spillways, o sewer /water pipeli
Slide 12: Global Concrete Market
Global Concrete Market For personal use only • Global concrete/ cement market- US$450 billion/year Approx. 1 tonne of concrete produced annually for every person Cement production creates 5% of annual global GHG emissions CNT concrete could reduce cement requirements by >15-30% • USA - initial
Slide 13: Future Large Scale CNT Production
Future Large Scale CNT Production For personal use only • 1,000 tonnes p.a. CNT capacity reactor sufficient for > 1.7 million tonnes concrete -7% of Australian market • 10,000 tonnes p.a. CNT capacity reactor - Natural Gas Fired Power Stations - Fertiliser Plants 500 MW station uses >100,000 tpa
Slide 14: 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
