1. TERRAGON ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIESEnabling Resilient and Sustainable Infrastructure, Generating Primary Resources Locally with No WasteDr. Panayotis (Peter) TsantrizosPresident, CEOMarineTourismCommunitiesHospitalsMilitary
2. An alternative to waste managementA world in which every human habitat uses its by-products locally to secure its primary resources and protect the environmentTerragon’s proprietary technologies are uniquely capable of enabling this visionENABLING THE "TRU HABITAT"02OUR MISSIONEnabling Total Resource Utilization = TRU Sustainable Living Carbon in SoilEnergyWaterFood Security
3. Canadians throw away about 3kg of garbage and over 300L of sewage every day!Damaging our health & environment, while ignoring opportunities for renewable resource recovery.“Waste management industry” growing faster than other business, hauling waste away from those generating them.Paying a lot of money to forego responsibility and be deprived of opportunity.03THE PROBLEMENTRENCHED CATASTROPHIC BEHAVIOURCambridge Bay SewageIqaluit DumpInukjuak DumpTorontoGarbage Haulers on Strike
4. The devastating health, social and economic impact of COVID-19 have highlighted how truly fragile our current infrastructure is. Waste disposal can be a major source of disease. Sewage water is a good way of detecting whether specific infections such as COVID-19 are present in the population. We must stop transferring our garbage and sewage to each other! PEOPLE ARE DETERMINED TO BUILD BACK BETTER.USING healthy, sustainable and resilient infrastructure.THE OPPORTUNITY TO BUILD BACK BETTERAutonomous Resilient Communities (ARC) are able to generate their primary resources (energy, water, food) from renewable local sources while they dispose no waste to the environment.04NOW IS THE TIME!
5. PIONEERING RESOURCE GENERATION APPLIANCESTerragon is disrupting common waste management practices by converting by-products to resources with simple and cost-effective appliances!05THE SOLUTIONMAGS: World’s first energy appliance using waste as its fuelWETT: World’s first water appliance for cleaning & reusing wastewaterHighly innovative cleantech developed with support by STDC and US ONR, amongst others.Won prestigious Awards in Canada, the USA, the UK and Germany, for both MAGS and WETT.Commercially validated and the preferred option in a very conservative market: cruise ships.
6. MAGS: AN ENERGY APPLIANCE FUELED BY WASTEAuto Gasification is a patented technology which thermally breaks down hydrocarbons into solid carbon andsynthesis gas and uses the synthesis gas to fuel the process.MAGS uses organic byproducts, such as plastic, paper, cardboard, textiles, etc., as fuel to generate energy.MAGS sequesters carbon and generates soil enriching bio-char.MAGS offer exceptional energy efficiency and can be operated anywhere!06RENEWABLE ENERGY
7. A new energy appliance that eliminates problems of incineratorsNew classification created by UL (under contract to SCC) that defines MAGS as a “water-heating gasification appliance”New classification from IMO expected in 2021 (Pollution Prevention & Response Group, PPR-7 Support)MAGS: SAFE, SIMPLE, ECONOMICAL, COMMERCIAL07RENEWABLE ENERGY
8. MAGS is classified as an energy appliance by UL and has very clean, cold, invisible and odorless emissions. MAGS can be operated anywhere without damaging the environment and without an incinerator exhaust stack.KEY COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE: CLEAN EMISSIONS08RENEWABLE ENERGYhttp://www.tuttnauer.com/blog/saturated-steam-sterilization-methodsMAGSDiesel BoilerWorld’s only boiler that can use waste as its fuel.
9. By replacing our wasteful “one pipe in - one pipe out” doctrine with “water for purpose” we can significantly reduce water consumption and eliminate dirty water discharge.RETHINKING WATER MANAGEMENT09CLEAN WATER FOR ALLWater for PurposeHigh quality potable water for drinking, cooking and showersUtility water for cleaning, laundry and toiletsIrrigation water with nutrients for plants
