Enertopia 2021 Fiscal year summary and
2022 Outlook
Kelowna, British Columbia, CANADA -- September 13th, 2021
-- InvestorsHub NewsWire -- Enertopia
Corporation ("Enertopia'' or the "Company")
an Environmental
Solutions Company focused
on using modern technology to extract lithium while verifying or
sourcing other intellectual property in the EV & green
technologies industries to build shareholder value, is pleased to
provide highlights from our fiscal 2021 year-end summary, and
our
outlook for the upcoming 2022
fiscal year.
The Year in Review
On October 7th,
2020 we signed an NDA for the review of a Lithium processing
pilot plant. As a result of this NDA, the company began
investigating various aspects of how to make the refining and
processing of lithium more environmentally
friendly.
This led Enertopia Corporation to
submit 3 separate provisional patents over the course of the year, which we
will go into further detail below.
We announced on December 15th the acquisition of
USPTO patent #6,024,086 - Solar energy collector having oval
absorption tubes. The Company believes this patent and
subsequent patent-pending applications could provide a novel
approach to using waste heat from various sources. We believe that
this technology has the ability to improve the ESG of not only many
current mining operations but could also be used in a wide variety
of industrial projects.
On
February 10th, 2021 we announced the engagement of four clean energy
consultants as part of our commitment to a green, clean mining
process. Enertopia is focusing these consultants' efforts on
further developing and adapting our filed provisional
patents.
The consultants include Mr.
Richard Smith, owner of Proactive Technology Inc. and holder of 14
separate patents in clean energy efficiency; Mr. Paul Sandler, a
data expert with over two decades of experience working at IBM; Mr.
Barry Brooks, who with over 50 years of engineering experience has
developed dozens of energy-efficient products & ventilation
methods for commercial applications; and Mr. Bruce Schellinger, a
20-year industry expert in structure insulation who was
instrumental in the state of Wisconsin's adoption of the P2000
insulation system.
On May 25th and May 26th we
announced the filing of our first two provisional patents that are
now known as the ENERTOPIA
SOLAR BOOSTER TM, and the ENERTOPIA HEAT EXTRACTOR
TM. The ENERTOPIA SOLAR
BOOSTERTM is loose coupled with the PV array, taking
the heat away from the PV panel & also acting as a cooling
blanket. This is done by reducing the potential of heat radiating
from the roof tiles into the attic space and finally into the
living space. The HEAT
EXTRACTOR TM is close-coupled on the backside of the Solar
(PV) panel, which cools it off. That in turn increases both the PV output and
the longevity of the PV panel. We believe these provisional patents have
multiple uses in the residential, commercial, industrial, and
mining sectors. Please read our PR from July 14th for
further information.
On August
17th
we announced our third provisional patent of the year,
the ENERTOPIA
RAINMAKER TM. We have developed a method to extract
moisture by lowering the temperature in the HEAT EXTRACTOR TM system to below the dew point of ambient
air.
Water will form on the outside
surfaces and drop to a catch basin for water retention and
collection.
This technology will be coupled
to large solar arrays where efficient PV power will be produced by
day and water produced by night and seasonally during the day.
Enertopia believes that this approach will significantly increase
the ROI of any power project where water shortages exist. Water
production costs are projected to be less than that of desalination
or reverse osmosis both in first cost and on a per-gallon basis.
Arid coastal and seasonally monsoonal areas are particularly
favorable.
Depending on the chosen location
water can be made at the rate of 1.5 to over 4 gallons per hour per
panel.
Looking Ahead to fiscal year 2022
On
September 2nd we announced our selection along with four other companies
in our consortium by the U.S Department of Energy (DOE) to provide
our synthetic brine samples from our Clayton Valley project.
The project
partnership will be using Magnetic Core-Shell Nanoparticles
technology in its efforts to recover Lithium from unconventional
sources.
Our monitoring program is
currently ongoing at the multi-MW solar array and is being run
concurrently using a 3rd party private monitoring system to
validate its ability to run bug-free and provide uninterrupted data
under extreme heat environments as the above monitoring
continues. These testing phases will allow for the
filing of final patent applications by fiscal Q3 2022, we will
announce updates to the process as warranted during Q1 and Q2 as we
reach in field milestones.
"Once we have the data from the above
programs and the DOE technology program, we will be able to move
forward on our pilot plans for how a carbon friendly footprint
mining scenario could look like." Stated President Robert
McAllister
