This project aims to enhance EMS technology by improving sensor reliability and adding detection capabilities for chlorinated solvents in challenging environments.

Deploy sensors, enhance reliability, and explore new applications at contaminated sites.

EMS’s technology addresses the needs of the resource extraction industry by leveraging unique features of soils, to create biogenic minerals to catalyze hydrocarbon destruction. Solar powered and local water sources, allow EMS technology to provide cost-effective, carbon efficient, solutions for industry’s looking to improve their environmental performance. Each EMS technology ecosystem deployed saves 30,000 t of soil, 1,000 kt CO2-equivalents emitted and removes over 300 t of spilled hydrocarbons from the environment.

EMS has partnered with SDTC, to deploy, validate and scale EMS-technology such that EMS’s technology can be used across the world. The SDTC sponsored project will transform EMS technology to a data-based, internet-of-things solution to today’s environmental challenges. In so doing, EMS’s technology will transform how organizations, large and small, manage their environmental liability.

EMS’s Crop Sense technology enables crop producers to track water, fertilizer and carbon across the broad acres of farmland that make up the world’s breadbaskets. The Crop Sense is a revolutionary soil sensor that agronomists and farmers can use where they wish, and for as long as they wish to answer the questions that keep them up at night. EMS’s decision support system links seamless with today’s farm management systems enabling producers to optimize food production while minimizing greenhouse gas emission and fertilizer runoff. In partnership with SDTC, EMS is building tomorrows soil sensors that will form a key component of the sustainable agriculture technology stack needed to reduce greenhouse gasses from production, while maintaining farm profitability and production capacity.

The project will support development of intellectual property capacity within the firm.

EMS is developing a suite of technologies for soil management and productivity. This project is related to new type of soil sensing techniques and plans to be integrated with their existing product. The identified youth with her Chemistry background and experience would add significant value to the development efforts moving forward.

International Co-Innovation Action Program (ICAP) project will prepare the firm for future international co-innovation work in the carbon sequestration and agricultural technology space.

This project aims to implement a soil sensor technology and a decision support tool that can improve in real time, the input and use of nutrients in agricultural systems.
