VIDEO - HPQ Silicon Is The Only Company Capable Of Delivering Low Carbon Fumed Silica To Global Market


https://agoracom.com/ir/HPQ-SiliconResources/forums/discussion/topics/797779-video-hpq-silicon-is-the-only-company-capable-of-delivering-low-carbon-fumed-silica-to-global-market/messages/2403440#message

If you knew that silicon is the second most abundant element in the earth's crust (behind only oxygen) and the eighth-most common element in the universe, you’d have very little reason to be concerned about it, let alone fear it.

 

But that would change quickly if you knew that Silicon Metal manufacturing is the largest emitter of CO2 on a per ton basis on the planet.  That concern would only continue to grow if you knew that Silicon Metal is used to create Fumed Silica, which is used in our everyday lives through products such as cosmetics, toothpaste and powdered foods.

 

HPQ SILICON DISRUPTIVE TECH IS SHAKING UP THE WORLD OF FUMED SILICA

 

HPQ Silicon is on the verge of disrupting the manufacturing process of Fumed Silica and becoming the sole provider capable of satisfying the strong demand for low carbon Fumed Silica products.

 

How disruptive is the HPQ Silicon Process?  

 

Energy Consumption 93% Lower

Greenhouse Gasses 84-88% Lower

Hydrogen Chloride Gas Complete Elimination

 

GIANTS OF FUMED SILICA MARKET HAVE TAKEN NOTICE AND SIGNED NDAs

 

More than just talk, the Fumed Silica industry has taken notice as evidenced by multiple NDAs with leading manufacturers immediately after HPQ announced the successful production of Fumed Silica samples through its proprietary Reactor technology.

 

It's time for investors to take a closer look at the groundbreaking strides HPQ is making in reducing the carbon footprint, while also shattering the economics of the Fumed Silica industry, 

 

These multiple non-disclosure agreements with leading manufacturers in the Fumed Silica space attest to HPQ's remarkable achievements. But what exactly is Fumed Silica, and why is the industry buzzing about it?

 

UNVEILING FUMED SILICA

 

Fumed Silica, a versatile micro-powder, isn't just another industrial substance. Its potential to reshape numerous industries, from cosmetics and toothpaste to powdered foods, makes it a game-changer across personal care, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, adhesives, construction, batteries, and beyond.

 

SIZE OF THE MARKET

 

Let's talk numbers: in 2022, Fumed Silica sales reached $1.3 billion, comprising a significant 16% of the $7.8 billion Specialty Silica Market. And there's no stopping its growth; it's projected to soar to $13.4 billion by 2030.

 

SCALING UP WITH POWER AND PRECISION

In a major leap, HPQ evaluates the viability of scaling up its Fumed Silica Reactor (FSR) from a 50 Tonnes Per Year (TPY) pilot plant to a robust 1,000 TPY commercial configuration. The significance of this move is underscored by its alignment with industry benchmarks, confirming not just technical feasibility but also showcasing environmental advantages inherent in the FSR technology.

ECONOMIC TRIUMPH BEYOND IMAGINATION

The internal economic study reveals a game-changing scenario for HPQ's Fumed Silica Reactor. A glimpse into the future suggests potential EBITDA margins three times higher than the industry average of 20%, coupled with a jaw-dropping 93% reduction in capital investment compared to traditional Fumed Silica plants.

A QUOTE FROM THE VISIONARY CEO

In the words of Mr. Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO of HPQ Silica Polvere Inc. and HPQ Silicon Inc.: 

"The shift of interest in our Fumed Silica offering, from the initial signing of our first NDA to explore the material commercial potential to a current keen focus on the commercial scalability potential of our proprietary Fumed Silica Reactor technology, marks another major step forward for HPQ Silica Polvere."

DISRUPTIVE ADVANTAGES IN NUMBERS

The internal economic study speaks volumes:

CAPEX (COST PER KG OF CAPACITY):

Conventional: US$ 145.91

HPQ Polvere: US$ 9.50

Disruptive Advantage: 93% less

ENERGY CONSUMPTION (KWH / KG OF FUMED SILICA):

Conventional: 100 – 120

HPQ Polvere: 10 – 15

Disruptive Advantage: 87.5 to 90% less

 

EBITDA MARGINS:

Conventional: 20%

HPQ Polvere: 60% - 65%

Disruptive Advantage: 3X better

 

GHG IMPACT (KG CO2 EQ / KG OF FUMED SILICA):

Conventional: 8 – 17

HPQ Polvere: 1 – 2.5

Disruptive Advantage: 84 to 88% less

 

EUROPEAN CARBON TAXES (€90 PER TONNE RELEASED):

Conventional: 720€ - 1530€

HPQ Polvere: 90€ - 225€

Disruptive Advantage: 630€ to 1350€ less

HYDROGEN CHLORIDE GAS (HCI) PRODUCTION (KG / KG FUMED SILICA):

Conventional: 2.4

HPQ Polvere: 0

Disruptive Advantage: No HCl gas

NEXT STEPS

HPQ management plans to validate and update these projections with upcoming pilot plant testing and an independent engineering cost and feasibility study.

HPQ looking in to build 50 reactors over next 10 years. Each reactor cost aboutr $10 million per units Pyro should be gettign $50 million per year

I think this is not a wholesome representation of what was said.  The question posed was hypothetical and Bernard threw "10, 20, 50" etc. In the end "up to 50".  I interpreted his remark as basically saying we'll build as many plants as are demanded and obviously it is premature to provide estimates with any degree of confidence at this point.  That part of ...more
