Dec 09, 2025 This edition of RBCCM’s Sustainability Matters highlights companies offering emerging products and solutions that address climate adaptation and resilience. The report features ZwitterC o , whose solutions drive water reclamation and strengthen operational resilience to climate-induced water stress. Utilizing patented zwitterionic chemistry, its membranes resist organic fouling, allowing industries to treat previously untreatable wastewater. ZwitterCo serves cli

Dec 04, 2025 The allure of “urban mining” — extracting critical minerals from what could be a massive above-ground deposit, sitting in junk drawers, scrap yards, and tailing piles — is self-evident.  Evok Partner, Mike Biddle, discusses the logistical challenges, explaining that there are inherent disadvantages of urban mining compared to primary mining, including distributed resources, creating reverse supply changes, and also undoing what humans have engineered - which is o

Nov 25, 2025 Ebb Carbon , a pion­eer­ing water tech­no­logy com­pany, has partnered with the Saudi Water Author­ity (SWA), the gov­ern­ment entity reg­u­lat­ing the King­dom’s water sec­tor, to decar­bon­ize desal­in­a­tion at an unpre­ced­en­ted scale. With Saudi Ara­bia account­ing for 22 per­cent of global desal­in­a­tion capa­city, the part­ner­ship tar­gets mega­ton-level car­bon diox­ide removal within the next dec­ade while improv­ing fresh­wa­ter recov­ery and over­al

Nov 4, 2025 Over the past three years, over a dozen food and dairy processors tested ZwitterCo membranes in the lab and demonstrated their unprecedented cleanability compared to conventional membranes. With FDA compliance, it is now 'Go time' for installing them in production systems. Read More

Nov 8, 2025 With the UN Climate Change Conference underway, hear from three Unreasonable Impact entrepreneurs - ZincFive, ChargerHelp and e-Zinc - strengthening the backbone of clean power. Unlike lithium-ion technologies, which store only a few hours of power, e-Zinc ’s proprietary zinc-based solution can store multiple days of clean energy capacity, keeping power flowing even when demand surges. “A lot of electrochemical technologies exchange ions between electrodes. What

Oct 30, 2025 Summit Nanotech today announced a major milestone in water efficiency for lithium extraction, reinforcing its position as a global leader in sustainable direct lithium extraction (DLE) technology. The announcement follows a series of strategic developments that have accelerated Summit’s commercial readiness. Independent validation confirmed that Summit’s process uses approximately 30% less freshwater than evaporation ponds and 50% less than commercial DLE benchm

Oct 24, 2025 Deloitte’s Technology Fast 50 program produces rapidly growing winners in any environment. The companies in Deloitte’s 2025 Technology Fast 50 program—which must have gone from at least $50,000 in revenue in 2021 to $5 million in 2024 to qualify MineSense Technologies is featured by the Globe & Mail as one of the three of the most exciting companies up close.  MineSense began its mission to “maximize global metals, minimize global impact” back in 2008—a lifetime
