Hydroxy Radical Process for reducing pathogens on the Table Eggs- Validation & Commercialization of Technology$75.0Kvalue2025start2026end

Clean Works is advancing our Clean Flow technology through design, construction and testing of a commercial scale gas phase hydroxyl-radical unit to facilitate egg disinfection focused on eliminating Salmonella and other avian pathogens in coordination with our academic lab & commercial partners. Backed on strong research data including published papers, this project will scale the lab findings to a commercialized unit that supports a technology launch into a new sales vertical.

USDA collaboration - Avian Pathogenic E.coli (APEC) on hatchery eggs.$8.7Kvalue2023start2023end

Clean Works has been presented with a significant opportunity to advance our Clean Flow technology within the poultry and hatchery market. The USDA and Mississippi State University would use our Clean Flow Mini units to evaluate Avian Pathogenic E.coli (APEC) and other pathogen reductions on hatchery eggs. This will provide significant validation of our technology in the global market. The outcome of the studies will result in published papers in the poultry industry denoting the Canadian invention and creation of further commercialization opportunities globally within the poultry sector.
