Grants and Contributions

About this information

In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.

The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.

Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

For-profit organization

Agreement:

Demonstrate the capability of advanced electro-oxidation with the ECOTHOR®-AOP system, integrated into a turnkey solution, for the removal of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS)

Agreement Number:

1029483

Duration: from Mar 4, 2025 to Oct 31, 2026
Description:

Perfluorinated and polyfluorinated alkyls, better known by their acronym “PFAS”, have always been used and released into the environment, mainly through the use of fire-fighting foams. Worldwide, the potential effects of PFAS on humans and the environment, and their ability to migrate, have given rise to considerable concern. Studies have already shown their potential harmful effects on humans. Some PFAS (PFOA and PFOS) are now regulated in several countries around the world. More standards are to come, as governments work on tighter criteria that will affect more compounds.
At present, there is no economically viable technology with minimal environmental impact to address this issue.
An electro-oxidation process has been developed by E2Metrix to degrade persistent refractory contaminants (known as “emerging contaminants”), including PFAS. Electro-oxidation with ECOTHOR-AOP uses highly conductive, chemically inert electrodes to effectively destroy these contaminants. The system is powered by solar energy. The system is controlled remotely and parameters are adjusted automatically using the integrated E2net platform (IOT).
E2metrix offers a new, efficient turnkey approach that will cut costs by 90-95%.
