Created in 2017, UrbanKisaan operates several greenhouses and vertical indoor farms around Hyderabad and Bangalore, India. Svante has won a $25 million investment from the Canadian government to help commercialize its solid-sorbent carbon-capture technology. Svante says the money will give it enough capital to build a commercial-scale manufacturing plant. Innospec will spend $10 million to boost its capacity in Salisbury, North Carolina, for isethionate surfactants, biobased alternatives to sulfates for consumer goods. The firm completed other expansions and added rail service at the site earlier this year. Vynova will spend more than $4 million to build what it says will be Europe’s largest liquid potassium carbonate plant. The plant will be at the firm’s site in Tessenderlo, Belgium, replacing a smaller facility there.View: PDF | Full Text HTML
