OAKVILLE, Ontario, Dec. 20, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Saint Jean Carbon Inc. (“Saint Jean” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: SJL) (OTCQB: TORVF), a carbon science company engaged in the design and build of green energy storage, green energy creation and green re-creation through the use of carbon materials. The Company is pleased to announce it has been awarded two graphene related projects from K-Technology USA Inc. (“K-Technology”). The first project is the development of superconducting wire based on Saint Jean’s provisional patent application (press release December 22nd 2015) for the development of a diamagnetic superconducting wire. The project intends to develop the necessary engineering to make a prototype wire. The second project is to develop a waste energy capture system patented by K-Technology (US patent US10,476,333B1). The project entails the rewiring of the motors (4) on a drone with Saint Jean hyper-conducting wire and engineering an alternator re capture system to recharge the batteries.
Paul Ogilvie, CEO, commented: “The opportunity to apply our developed technology into real world projects, we feel, helps us show the world that producing the very best raw materials for high tech applications can be and are being produced by the Saint Jean team.”
John Kim, CEO, K-Technology USA Inc, commented: “Our Company designs and develops very complex technology for sustainable energy systems. Working with Saint Jean is a pleasure as the team can produce the very material necessary to build out the applications. We have learned over the years that we need to work with companies that are hungry, aggressive and highly dedicated to being a part of the next wave of energy creation and storage applications.”
Both projects are moving along on time and are expected to be completed in the first half of the new year. The projects highlight the Company’s ability to produce raw materials and apply them into products as a part of a new wave of energy storage and energy creation being used in homes, cars and just about every portable devise on the market.
The Company would like to provide the following update to the recently announced acquisition of Process Research Ortech, announced on July 9th 2019, August 8th 2019, September 10th 2019, October 8th 2019 and November 7th 2019. The Company continues to work on the required documentation that is customary to a fundamental transaction. The Company hopes to have all the documents filed shortly. Specifically the financial audits of Ortech that were expected to be completed last month and have been delayed further to meet all of the filing requirements. With a goal of closing the transaction as soon as possible. Both Ortech and Saint Jean continue to work together on sales and marketing efforts as they explore global opportunities.
