Carbon removal
Bio-Oil Sequestration in Canada
The Ontario Avenue Project, located in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, is a commercial-scale biomass carbon removal and utilisation project developed by NULIFE GreenTech. The project uses NULIFE’s patented Hydrothermal Liquefaction (HTL) technology to convert locally sourced waste biomass into a carbon-dense bio-oil. Feedstocks include both wet and dry organic residues from nearby food processing facilities, demonstrating the technology’s flexibility in handling a diverse range of waste streams.
The resulting bio-oil is transported to a third-party sequestration site, where it is permanently stored in an underground salt cavern in Canada.
This project supports SDG 13 by delivering durable carbon removal through Biomass Carbon Removal and Storage (BiCRS). By converting waste biomass into carbon-dense bio-oil and permanently sequestering it in a secure underground salt cavern, the project prevents biogenic carbon from returning to the atmosphere as CO₂ or methane. When the biomass supply is replenished, this process results in net removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.
