NanosTech is an innovative leader in the energy transition sector. Specializing in green chemistry-based technologies, NanosTech focuses on sustainable solutions for the production and upgrading of oils, as well as the generation of hydrogen. With a commitment to advancing the energy transition, NanosTech plays a crucial role in shaping a greener and more sustainable future.
NanosTech, a Vorsana Company, emerged from the University of Calgary’s Alberta Ingenuity Centre for In-Situ Energy (AICISE). A Canadian powerhouse of innovation in catalysts and adsorbents for energy and fuels, AICISE encourages and promotes an environmentally sustainable, efficient, circular-economy approach to improve recovery and upgrading of Alberta’s bitumen reserves.
We hold more than 66 patents and have developed 15 different product solutions to reduce greenhouse gasses (GHGs) and restore compromised environments, creating sustainable products for the future.
Our CTO, Pedro Pereira-Almao, has held the NSERC Industrial Chair “Catalysis for Bitumen Upgrading” at the UofC’s Schulich School of Engineering, and has been working on upgrading technologies for more than 30 years, the last 18 years in In-situ (in-reservoir) upgrading and other technology schemes from CO2 conversion to renewable fuels.
