Your feedstocks are getting harder. Your margins are under pressure. Our catalysts are built for exactly that.
We engineer nanocatalyst families for the realities of industrial energy: water, steam, sulfur, heavy molecules, oxygen-rich bio-oils, captured CO2, and scale.
Three catalyst families, Olympia, Kraken, and Triton, plus ISUT®, our in-reservoir upgrading technology. Built in Calgary for cleaner fuels, carbon conversion, responsible heavy oil production, and refinery upgrading.
Every NanosTech catalyst family is built on a decade of original nanocatalyst science: distinct chemistries, engineered from first principles for each application. One platform architecture. Four commercial pathways across the energy transition.
No rare metals, no exotic reactor chemistry, no bespoke supply chain.
Proven performance in steam, produced water, and high sulfur feedstocks.
Noble metal selectivity at a fraction of the cost. A clear business case from day one.
NanosTech works with energy and fuel sectors where catalyst performance can change project economics, asset life, and emissions intensity.
Producers and refiners working to bring waste-derived and biomass-based fuel pathways into commercial fuel markets.
Industrial emitters, fuel developers, and carbon markets looking for productive uses for captured CO2.
Producers managing heavy crude assets who need to improve barrel value at the source and reduce the cost of getting it to market.
Operators who receive, move, or process heavy crude and want to improve feed quality before it enters the next stage of the value chain.
Clean Energy Solutions build the fuel systems of tomorrow. Responsible Oil Production makes today's energy cleaner and more valuable using infrastructure the industry already owns.
Renewable fuels and circular carbon for the refineries and fuel systems of tomorrow.
AQP Bio upgrades biocrudes and waste-derived oils into cleaner, refinery-ready fuel streams. It is designed for the feedstocks that make renewable fuels difficult: oxygen-rich oils, water, instability, and mixed waste origins.
For partners, that means a practical route to renewable diesel, sustainable aviation fuel pathways, and marine fuel opportunities using material that would otherwise be hard to place.
The Olympia™ catalyst converts captured CO₂ into syngas via reverse water-gas shift, with near-100% CO selectivity and no noble metals. Independently validated in Science, 2024.
Syngas from the Olympia™ catalyst feeds directly into Fischer-Tropsch or methanol synthesis, enabling Power-to-Liquids, eSAF, and circular chemistry pathways without a separation step.
Cleaner, higher-value barrels from the infrastructure the industry already owns.
AQP Classic partially upgrades heavy crude fractions at any point in the value chain: at the wellhead, at a gathering terminal, at a midstream facility, or at the refinery gate. It raises API gravity, cuts sulfur, reduces viscosity, and eliminates TAN before the barrel moves further.
Because AQP Classic generates its own hydrogen from steam, it deploys without hydrogen infrastructure, at any scale. Producers, midstream operators, terminals, and refineries all use it to unlock value from barrels that would otherwise ship at a discount or cost money to move.
ISUT brings catalyst upgrading into the reservoir, improving heavy oil before it ever reaches surface. The process changes the quality and flow of the oil where production begins, reducing what has to be done downstream.
For producers, that means lower viscosity and higher API gravity, reduced downstream burden, and cleaner production from assets already in place.
BTG Bioliquids is the world's leading provider of fast pyrolysis technology. Together with AQP Bio, we offer biomass-to-refinery integrators a single contractual path from feedstock to refinery-miscible fuel.
