Bitumen Beyond Combustion (BBC) Program | Alberta Innovates

none

Value

Description

The BBC program develops technologies that convert Alberta oil sands components into non-combustion products (i.e., products that are not fuels, such as gasoline, diesel, and heating oil). Examples of BBC products could include carbon fibres, high-quality asphalts, activated carbon, carbon nanotubes, graphene, polyurethanes, polycarbonates, and controlled-release fertilizers.

Eligible Applicants

Funding is open to all categories of lead applicant including technology developers, industry, industrial associations, small and medium-sized enterprises, research and development (R&D) organizations, post-secondary institutions, municipalities, not-for-profit organizations, government research labs, individuals and others, who are advancing technology development within a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) range of 3-7.

Applicants are not required to be based in Alberta, but must demonstrate a clear value proposition for the Province and be able to clearly demonstrate alignment to the program area priorities.

Eligible Expenses

The BBC program’s goals are to enhance the value of Alberta’s oil sands through:

  • Diversifying the uses of oil sands constituents, resulting in high-value products that can be made by or in partnership with Alberta’s oil sands industry.
  • Accommodating increased oil sands production in Alberta by creating new and/or expanded markets for oil sands constituents and its derived products.
  • Offsetting a potential decline in the demand for oil sands-based combustion products like fuels.

The objectives of the program are to:

  • Determine whether the organic constituents of oil sands have considerable global market potential as feedstocks for non-combustion products.
  • Assess the economic feasibility of producing non-combustion products from components of bitumen.
  • Identify knowledge, technology and market gaps for BBC products.
  • Develop projects to develop BBC production projects from R&D to demonstration phases that will lead to commercialization of the technologies.
