HPQ Silicon Inc., a renowned technology company specializing in green engineering processes for silica and silicon material production, has reached a ground-breaking milestone with its Fumed Silica Reactor development project. The Company's wholly-owned subsidiary, HPQ Silica Polvere Inc. in collaboration with technology provider PyroGenesis Canada Inc., has successfully achieved lab-scale production of Fumed Silica using raw quartz as feedstock in just one step, thanks to their proprietary reactor technology.

With this major accomplishment, HPQ Polvere is now set to send Fumed Silica samples to interested third parties for testing. The Fumed Silica material exhibits structural characteristics similar to commercial grade fumed silica, making it highly attractive for various industries, including personal care, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, adhesives, construction, automotive, and more.

Fumed silica is a microscopic white powder with significant applications and an estimated market size of US$2.2 billion by 2022. However, conventional manufacturing processes are costly and environmentally taxing. HPQ Polvere's Fumed Silica Reactor is a game-changer as it directly transforms quartz into fumed silica, significantly reducing energy consumption and environmental impact.

The groundbreaking technology is projected to enable HPQ Silica Polvere to produce high-purity Fumed Silica for less than US$2.00 per kg, compared to the conventional process, which costs approximately US$7.00 per kg. This cost reduction, coupled with the environmentally-friendly approach, positions HPQ Silica Polvere to revolutionize fumed silica production and capture a significant share of the growing market demand.
