$HPQ.ca Partner #Apollon Solar Delivers First Batch of Carbon Coated Nano Silicon Powders to INRS for Evaluation $EFL.ca $EGT.ca $ENPH $PYR.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 10:05 AM on Thursday, November 19th, 2020

Advances Its Silicon Materials for Batteries Development Program

  • Apollon Solar produces first batch of carbon coated nano silicon powders.
  • HPQ Silicon is developing a portfolio of silicon–based products using proprietary innovative low cost and scalable processes. The target objective is to produce high value speciality Silicon products needed by batteries and electric vehicle manufactures.

MONTREAL, Nov. 19, 2020 – Innovative silicon solutions provider HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. (“HPQ” or “the Company”) ( TSX-V: HPQ ; FWB: UGE ; Other OTC : URAGF ), is pleased to announce that, in addition to manufacturing samples of porous Silicon nanopowders of different sizes (2 nm to 1 µm) and pore structures (Microporous (<5nm), Mesoporous (5nm – 50nm) or Macroporous (>50nm)), HPQ Silicon R&D consortium member Apollon Solar of France has also commenced evaluation of different carbon encapsulating processes for Silicon nanopowders. As part of this HPQ – led effort, Apollon has delivered a first batch of carbon coated nano silicon powders to Professor Lionel Roué team at the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS) for evaluation. Other batches of silicon materials (coated and non-coated) are being prepared and will be sent the INRS for evaluations over the coming weeks.

ACCELERATING R&D ON NANO SILICON POWDERS CARBON COATING

Apollon proposed that in addition to carbon coating their porous Silicon nanopowders they could use commercially available but expensive (US$ 22,500 per Kg) 1 nano silicon powders to evaluate the efficiency of different carbon coating processes. Using powders with the same characteristic as the powders to be produced by HPQ NANO PUREVAP™ N ANO S ILICON R EACTOR should reduce our R&D timeline and give us valuable insight moving forward.

Producing carbon coated nano silicon powders for testing this early in the process is another demonstration of the depth and flexibility of HPQ’s R&D consortium. HPQ is committed to staying at the forefront of Silicon for batteries R&D . This latest effort is part of our plan to produce products for renewable energy storage participants and electric vehicle manufacturers who continue to search for cost effective ways of increasing the Silicon contained in their batteries. ,” said Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO HPQ Silicon. “Silicon’s potential to meet energy storage demand is undeniable , generating massive investments , and serious industry interest. We are very confident that demand for the Silicon materials we will produce , with our low-cost scalable process es , will be high demand by batteries and EV manufacturers in this renewable energy revolution .

SILICON POTENTIAL FOR BATTERY ANODE MATERIAL BECOMES MAINSTREAM

Tesla’s latest battery day presentation confirmed that the future of battery anodes will include Silicon. Tesla’s “… plans on removing graphite from the anode 2 , points to the need for innovative silicon solutions which HPQ is focused on, to make Silicon – based anodes technically and economically feasible for the production of more efficient rechargeable Li-batteries.

Presently, Silicon is used in a blended form with graphite and typically only represents around 5% by wt , which explains the limited performance improvements achieved to date. The primary hurdle to increasing Silicon anode content in Li-ion batteries is the mitigation of Silicon swelling and cracking during the lithiation phase 3 in order to achieve a cycling stability comparable to graphite.

Ongoing R&D indicates that the two most promising avenues for resolving these issues are:

  1. Nanosizing Silicon powders to eliminate cracking during the lithiation phase.
  2. Encapsulating the Silicon in order to improve its swelling and cracking characteristics.

HPQ is in the forefront of addressing these issues with the PUREVAP™ NSiR process and our ongoing work on porous silicon nanopowders and carbon coating nano silicon.

About HPQ Silicon

HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. ( TSX-V: HPQ ) is a Canadian Innovative Silicon Solutions Provider.

Silicon (Si), also known as silicon metal, is one of today’s key strategic materials needed for the decarbonization of the economy and the Renewable Energy Revolution (“RER”).

Silicon is the most abundant element in earth’s crust but does not exist in its pure state and must be extracted from quartz (SiO 2 ) in what has historically been a capital and energy intensive process. HPQ is building a portfolio of silicon–based products using innovative scalable processes. The target objective is to produce high value speciality Silicon products using technologies that will reduce energy consumption, GHG’s, and carbon footprint.

Working with PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (TSX-V: PYR) , a high-tech company that designs, develops, manufactures and commercializes plasma – based processes, HPQ is developing:

  • The PUREVAP™ “Quartz Reduction Reactors” (QRR) , an innovative process (patent pending), which will permit the one step transformation of quartz (SiO 2 ) into high purity silicon (Si) at reduced costs, energy input, and carbon footprint that will propagate its considerable renewable energy potential ;

    HPQ believes it will become the lowest cost (Capex and Opex) producer of silicon (Si) and high purity silicon metal (3N – 4N Si);
  • Through its 100% owned subsidiary HPQ NANO Silicon Powders Inc, the PUREVAP™ Nano Silicon Reactor (NSiR ) , a new proprietary process that can use different purities of silicon (Si) as feedstock, to make spherical silicon nanopowders and nanowires.

    •  HPQ believes it can also become the lowest cost manufacturer of spherical Si nanopowders and silicon-based composites needed by manufacturers of next-generation lithium-ion batteries .

    During the coming months, spherical Si nanopowders and nanowires silicon-based composite samples requested by industry participants and research institutions’ will be produced using PUREVAP™ SiNR .

HPQ is also working with industry leader Apollon Solar of France to:

  • Use their patented process and develop a capability to produce commercially porous silicon (Si) wafers and porous silicon (Si) powders.

    •  The collaboration will allow HPQ to become the lowest cost producer of porous silicon wafers for all-solid -state batteries and porous silicon powders for Li-ion batteries.

    •  Develop the hydrogen generation potential of Silicon nanopowders for use with the Gennao™ system.

    •  Commercialize, exclusively in Canada, and non-exclusive in the U.S.A., the Gennao™ H 2 system and the chemical powders required for the hydrolysis production of Hydrogen (“H2”).

  • Peak launched a financing program powered by Lending Hub in October specifically designed to provide better cash flow flexibility to large wholesale distributors and their retail clients
  • The program, which recorded its first transactions a week ago, allows for retailers to have up to 90% of the price of the products they purchase from participating distributors financed by the Lending Hub’s banks and lending institution

Montreal, Quebec–(November 19, 2020) – Peak Positioning Technologies Inc. (CSE: PKK) (OTCQX: PKKFF) (“Peak” or the “Company”), an innovative Fintech service provider to the Chinese commercial lending sector, today announced that it has signed an agreement with packaged foods wholesale distributor Beijing Jingying Corporate Management Ltd. (“BJM”) to bring Peak’s Cubeler Lending Hub financing solution to BJM and its more than 250,000 retail clients.

Peak launched a financing program powered by Lending Hub in October specifically designed to provide better cash flow flexibility to large wholesale distributors and their retail clients. The program, which recorded its first transactions a week ago, allows for retailers to have up to 90% of the price of the products they purchase from participating distributors financed by the Lending Hub’s banks and lending institutions.

BJM is the second wholesale distributor to subscribe to the program joining consumer electronics product distributor Beijing Dianjing Company Ltd., which helped launch the program with its 60,000 plus online retail clients. BJM is a major distributor of a variety of popular products from China Oil and Foodstuffs Corporation (COFCO), for which it has exclusive distribution rights to approximately 200,000 Petro-China convenience stores and on online retail giant JD.com. COFCO is a state-owner food processing company. It’s China’s largest food processor, manufacturer and commodities trader. With operations in Japan, the US, the UK, Australia and Canada, it’s one of the largest agribusiness groups in all of Asia.

Most recently BJM became an authorized distributor of RELX brand e-cigarettes, one of China’s most popular and fastest growing brands of e-cigarettes, sold at over 3,000 retail outlets throughout the country.

“We are very pleased to be joining this wonderful financing program created by Peak,” commented Mr. Yang Zhang, CEO of BJM. “We have no doubt that this will be extremely beneficial to most of our clients and we very much look forward to getting them signed up as quickly as possible,” he went on to say.

“I would like to take this opportunity to welcome Mr. Zhang and BJM to our new Lending Hub financing program and look forward to working with him and his team,” said Peak Group China CEO, Mr. Liang Qiu. “BJM’s arrival to the program brings us a great mixture of online and offline stores and allows us to further showcase Lending Hub’s versatility when it comes to its ability to help businesses up and down the supply chain whether they operate predominantly online or offline. We’ve noticed somewhat of a blurring of the online and offline retail space lately including JD.com announcing plans for a network of 5 million brick-and-mortar stores in the next 3 years. I think with Lending Hub’s ability to process and analyze data coming from its member businesses both online and offline, Peak is ideally positioned to play an increasingly important role in this blurring or evolution of the retail space,” concluded Mr. Qiu.

Empower Clinics $CBDT.ca $EPWCF Kai Medical Lab to Introduce New Influenza A/B COVID RT-PCR Test to Differentiate Influenza From COVID-19. Recent $1,000,000 Testing Order Tt Utilize New Protocol the Kai ABC RT-PCR Test $WELL.ca $DOC.ca $DOCRF $VMD.ca $VPT.ca $ADK.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 7:07 AM on Thursday, November 19th, 2020
  • Announced that Kai Medical Laboratory (“KAI”) will be introducing its new KAI ABC RT-PCR test protocol to differentiate between Influenza A/B and COVID-19 (“ABC”), which will be vital in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory pathogens
  • The new KAI ABC RT-PCR test protocol is expected to be ready for the market in the first week of December, in time for the most recent 9,000 unit, $1,000,000 order for a film & television production

VANCOUVER BC / November 19, 2020 / EMPOWER CLINICS INC. (CSE:CBDT)(Frankfurt:8EC)(OTCQB:EPWCF) (“Empower” or the “Company“) an integrated healthcare company serving a database of 165,000 patients through clinics in the southwest United States, a telemedicine platform and medical diagnostics laboratory, is pleased to announce that Kai Medical Laboratory (“KAI”) will be introducing its new KAI ABC RT-PCR test protocol to differentiate between Influenza A/B and COVID-19 (“ABC”), which will be vital in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory pathogens.

The new KAI ABC RT-PCR test protocol is expected to be ready for the market in the first week of December, in time for the most recent 9,000 unit, $1,000,000 order for a film & television production.

Empower Clinics Chairman and CEO, Steven McAuley, stated “Kai Medical Laboratory with its team of scientists and lab experts are opening new channels of expansion for Empower in research and diagnostics, enabling the company to access dramatically larger national and international markets for healthcare products. We have a number of exciting developments coming that expand and diversify our reach both through the lab and within our clinic layer that have direct access to patients”

MULTIPLE BENEFITS OF KAI ABC RT-PCR RANGE FROM EARLY AND CORRECT DIAGNOISIS TO PACKAGED COST SAVINGS

COVID-19 and influenza viruses have a similar disease presentation. They both cause respiratory disease, which presents as a wide range of illness from asymptomatic or mild through to severe disease and death. As such, the benefits of this KAI ABC RT-PCR test protocol being able to differentiate between the Flu and COVID-19 are invaluable as follows:

First, it is vital in the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory pathogens. As most COVID-19 testing now primarily focuses on COVID-19 only, diagnosing the difference between the two will be crucial to treatment, health outcomes, and overall health of the population. Specifically, differentiating the pathogens will help medical professionals quickly diagnose and treat more efficiently & efficaciously.

Second, it is a vital tool in helping slow down the spread of COVID-19. Specifically, the speed of transmission is an important point of difference between the two viruses. Influenza has a shorter median incubation period (the time from infection to appearance of symptoms) than COVID-19. Transmission in the first 3-5 days of illness is a major driver for the spread of viral infections. This makes COVID-19 extremely difficult to contain. This is why testing to differentiate the viral infections becomes critical to “slowing the spread.”

Finally, affordability and efficiency. Though the overall cost of an ABC RT-PCR test is approximately 15% to 25% more expensive than an RT-PCR test, providing analysis on all three viruses is significantly cheaper and more affordable than testing for them separately. Moreover, from an efficiency point of view, simultaneously confirming a patient has the flu and does not have COVID-19 from the same collected specimen, allows them, their families and work colleagues to return to a normal life much faster.

BENEFITS TO EMPOWER CLINICS

From a business development point of view, Empower has a high degree of confidence the multiple benefits listed above will translate into significant new business, as evidenced already by the transition of the Company’s recent $1,000,000 test order by a film & tv production from RT-PCR to the new KAI ABC RT-PCR protocol.

“From an R&D perspective, Kai Medical Laboratory is focused on the future and new innovative quality testing to better understand the epidemiology and contagion containment that we have all experienced during this pandemic.” said Yoshi Tyler, President Kai Medical Laboratory. She further states “Kai Medical will continue to be at the forefront of science and innovative quality care by providing value added services, accuracy, and consistency. As such, we believe this will be the first of many successful R&D product announcements in the near future.”

VIDEO – ThreeD Capital $IDK.ca $IDKFF Discusses Big Picture, Some Portfolio Investments, Favourite Sectors … And Why 2021 Is “The Year To Be All In” $PKK.ca $PKKFF $MTRX.ca $RACMF

IDK-square-for-blog

ThreeD Capital (IDK:CSE / IDKFF:OTCQB) prides itself on discovering great companies before everyone else … and it casts a wide net to find the best of the best ranging from precious metals companies to completely disruptive companies.  Moreover, IDK isn’t afraid to invest and be patient in both public and private companies.  

As such, it’s like and ETF for ground floor investments that small cap investors would either be unable to find (private) or unable to participate in (early round accredited investors)  

It is able to do all this and do it well under the leadership of one of the greatest investors in Canadian history – Sheldon Inwentash, the Founder, Chairman and CEO of IDK. Inwentash’s track record of success speaks for itself, including successful exits in the hundreds of millions and even billions in previous years.  His last company commanded a market cap north of $1 Billion and now he’s looking to create another success out of IDK.    

Will he do it?  He’s off to a good start so far by quietly making investments over the past couple of years that are now starting to pay off.  In this interview Inwentash discusses:

  • His investment philosophy
  • A couple of his recent investments in Peak Fintech (PKK:CSE) and Loop Insights (MTRX:TSXV)
  • Why he’s investing heavily in gold juniors
  • Why he’s investing heavily in blockchain companies + their tokens

Best of all, after one hell of a ride for the financial markets in 2020, Inwentash talks about why 2021 “is the year to be all in”  

Watch this great interview … because when a legendary financier speaks, every small cap investor should be listening.
