Great announcement once again. Still trying to get my head around the the biomimetic product that Cardia are planning on developing, wow! Regenerative medicine is one very big market.
Importantly, the research will create the potential to develop a world-first internationally accredited compostable PPC polymer said Mr Pat Volpe, Chairman of Cardia Bioplastics.
The development of this breakthrough clean technology will transform Cardia's bioplastic starch blended products which are used in the plastics and packaging industry, into a mult-purpose and global "greeen friendly" product that can be used across many other applications and products.
Converting carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide from pollution into valluable materials has the potential to transform the plastics and materials landscape on a global scale said Mr Pat Volpe.
I was wondering when we were going to hear some news on this front. I posted this back in May this year...
Since this news release below (26-10-2010), have Cardia perfected their CO2STM technology? Is the reason for the delay with major global partners? I'm still making my way through all the news releases.
Cardia Bioplastics now plans to perfect the new CO2STM technology by increasing the PPC content and the renewable resource component so that up to 60% less virgin oil will be used, when compared to currently marketed biodegradable oil based products.
and...
"We are now ready to commercialise this innovative technology and are searching for a suitable international partner with oil or gas wells, or refineries producing CO2 emissions. We are getting close in our negotiations and the market will be informed when current discussions materialise into a support agreement," he said.
