Below is information pulled from the Q3 2020 MD&A. It pertains the the number of known clients waiting for HPQ to deliver Silicon Nano Particle samples to be tested for use in commercial products. I've also attached information on where we currently are in the timeline. Assembly of Gen1 PUREVAP NSiR began Nov.9 and I believe it is now operational and we are in the midst of internal testing before commissioning and sample delivery to clients in December 2020.
Once the Gen1 NSiR is operational, as series of test runs will be done in order to produce nano Silicon materials. In addition to producing samples for potential customers, the nano Silicon material produced will be analysed and characterized in order to define important process parameters, fine tune operating parameters and assess the performance of all the components of the systems. HPQ NANO and PyroGenesis have agreed that each series of 10 tests would cost HPQ NANO $132,000.
On June 11, 2020 HPQ annouced that it had signed a non-disclosure agreement (“NDA”) with an advanced materials developer for the purposes of exchanging technical information and sending silicon samples produced by the PUREVAPTM Nano Silicon Reactor (NSIR) for energy storage applications testing. For industry competitive reasons, and according to the terms of the NDA, the identity of the advanced materials developer must remain confidential.
October 22, 20202 HPQ, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, HPQ Nano announced that a major automobile manufacturer that demonstrated an interest in the Spherical Nano Silicon powders to be produced by the PUREVAPTM “NSiR” (Sept. 30 2020 release) has submitted to HPQ NANO a formal Purchase Order for the material. This represent HPQ NANO first ever nanopowders order. The manufacturer is well aware that HPQ NANO will only fulfill this first order in December 2020 and, as such, this order is simply a way for them to guarantee to be first in queue for the material. The automobile manufacture’s name shall remain anonymous for competitive and confidential reasons.
Clean Renewable Hydrogen Production using Apollon Solar Gennao H2TM 200W, a fuel cell based system that can produce hydrogen by hydrolysis simply by combining water with an environmentally friendly1 chemical powder. Replacing the chemical powder presently used with nano silicon powders, such as those about to be produced by the HPQ NANO PUREVAPTM NSiR, could significantly increase the hydrogen generation capacity of the system.
