FuelPositive Files Provisional Patent for New Green Aqueous Ammonia Add-On Module Systems
WATERLOO, Ontario, March 21, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — FuelPositive Corporation, a leading Green Ammonia Company (TSX.V: NHHH) (OTCQB: NHHHF), has filed a provisional patent for its new Green Aqueous Ammonia add-on module systems: the FP300A and FP1500A. This system has the potential to revolutionize the production of Green Aqueous Ammonia fertilizer, offering farmers a more cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution compared to existing methods.
Benefits of Green Aqueous Ammonia
FuelPositive’s new add-on module allows farmers to produce Green Aqueous Ammonia fertilizer on-site, providing them with flexibility in production volume and nitrogen concentration. This customizable approach not only reduces costs but also minimizes greenhouse gas emissions.
Unlike anhydrous ammonia, which has limitations in certain agricultural settings, Green Aqueous Ammonia is a preferred alternative due to its lower nitrogen content and improved safety protocols. However, current production methods for aqueous ammonia are centralized and require large-scale facilities that rely on fossil fuels and significant water supplies.
FuelPositive’s new module overcomes these challenges by enabling on-site production of Green Aqueous Ammonia, eliminating the need for transportation and storage. Farmers can adjust the concentration of the output fertilizer as needed, making it a versatile solution for various agricultural applications.
Key Features of the Add-On Module
- Dual function: can produce both Green Anhydrous Ammonia and Green Aqueous Ammonia Fertilizers
- Farmers can choose their own Green Aqueous Ammonia concentrations from 5% to 30%
- Farmers can choose Fertilizer PH balance
- The FP300A and FP1500A modules utilize the same heating and cooling systems as the FP300 and FP1500
- Green Aqueous Ammonia requires fewer storage and handling safeguards than Green Anhydrous Ammonia
“We anticipate having the first Green Aqueous Ammonia module pilot ready this fall, and I’m thrilled that we can provide more smart fertilizer options to farmers and other customers,” says Nelson Leite, FuelPositive’s Chief Technology Officer and Board Director. “This technology milestone marks a new phase in FuelPositive’s evolution and sets a new standard in the agricultural market, making affordable Green Aqueous Ammonia accessible to more farmers.”
FuelPositive is committed to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) outlined by the United Nations. By introducing the Green Aqueous Ammonia add-on module, the company is contributing to SDG 2: Zero Hunger, SDG 7: Affordable and Clean Energy, and SDG 13: Climate Action.
FP300 System Readiness Update
FuelPositive is making significant progress towards system readiness and delivery. The company remains on track with its April 15th target date for the FP300 system.
The FP300 system is currently undergoing thorough preparation for shipping and on-farm commissioning. FuelPositive is dedicated to ensuring a smooth and successful delivery of the world’s first containerized Green Anhydrous Ammonia system in Sperling, Manitoba.
Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT) of the Green Anhydrous Ammonia system will occur in early April, with Curtis Hiebert and his team being the first farmer-partners to test the system. Other interested farmers are scheduled to visit within the same timeframe.
“I’m excited to finalize our system readiness on time to meet our deadlines and to install our first pilot system in Manitoba this April,” said Nelson Leite, FuelPositive’s Chief Technology Officer and Board Director.
FuelPositive’s commitment to sustainable agriculture extends beyond technology development. The company is working closely with local stakeholders, such as Manitoba Hydro, to ensure the smooth implementation of the first on-farm FuelPositive installation. This collaboration highlights FuelPositive’s dedication to SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals.
Farm Readiness Update
The Hieberts, FuelPositive’s first demonstration partner and multi-generation Manitoba farmers, are actively preparing their farm site for the arrival of the Green Anhydrous Ammonia system. With the support of Manitoba Hydro, they are completing the necessary electrical upgrades to power the system.
FuelPositive is confident that with the collective efforts of its team and partners, the Hieberts will be able to apply Green Anhydrous Ammonia to their fields for the first time during their next planned applications later this fall.
“We are eagerly anticipating the arrival of the first FuelPositive Green Anhydrous Ammonia system, and we’ll be traveling to see it up and running in Waterloo in early April for the Factory Acceptance Testing and training,” said Curtis Hiebert. “Our team at home is actively prepping our farm to be ready for the system’s arrival. We are excited to receive it and have it operational on our farm.”
FuelPositive’s innovative solutions align with SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production, SDG 15: Life on Land, and SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals.
