The province announced a funding partnership with Emissions Reduction Alberta (ERA) Monday to provide new solutions to extend the lifecycle of certain recyclable materials.
“It’s all about shifting traditional resource and waste challenges into new opportunities.”
The ERA went through a partnership selection process, and all chosen partners are required to publicly report their final outcomes.The 10 chosen companies including, Northstar Clean Technologies, will use their funds to move forward with their projects — regardless of what stage they are at. Northstar CEO, Aidan Mills, said the company plans to build the largest commercial asphalt shingle processing plant in North America in Calgary as part of its project.
The processing plant — which will be commissioned in the second quarter of next year — will allow for 40,000 tonnes of shingles to divert from landfills and land instead at the processing plant, Mills said. This will allow the company to produce around 10,000 tonnes of asphalt and fibre, respectively, and 20,000 tonnes of aggregate, which will all go back for industrial use.
