State to allocate 1.7 million euros in support of Estonia’s largest circular economy project
Via the Applied Research Programme of Enterprise Estonia, the state is set to provide 1.7 million euros in support for the applied research to be carried out as part of the second stage of the oil shale ash enhancement project of Ragn-Sells OSA.
From ash piles to a carbon negative raw material – Tarkett and Ragn-Sells partner to fight climate change
Tarkett, a world leader in flooring and sports surface solutions, and Ragn-Sells have signed a Letter of Intent with the objective of jointly developing carbon negative material loops.
The Estonian oil shale ash upcycling project was selected for four programmes at the Glasgow climate summit
The oil shale upcycling project developed in Estonia by the environment company Ragn Sells will be presented on four stages at the COP26 climate conference held in Glasgow next week - at the European Union, International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), Nordic countries and global climate organisation We Don’t Have Time pavilions.
Enterprise Estonia provided 255,269 euros to support applied research on OSA project in 2021
We are pleased to announce that Enterprise Estonia has supported applied research in Ragn-Sells’s OSA project in the amount of 255,269 Euros. The support helps us to carry out industrial-scale trials of production of climate-neural calcium carbonate from oil shale ash and design the preliminary version of the production processes and production unit.
Samples were taken from Ida-Viru County ash hill for studying possible uses in 2021
In cooperation with Engineering Bureau STEIGER and University of Tartu scientists, Ragn-Sells has taken core samples from an oil shale ash hill in Ida-Viru County for the purpose of gathering information that will support further research into valorizing the older layers of the deposited ash.
Ragn-Sells introduced oil shale ash valorisation project in Narva-Jõesuu in 2020
On 29 June, the representatives of Ragn-Sells AS met with the representatives of the local government, entrepreneurs and people of Narva-Jõesuu to introduce the idea of a plant based on an innovative oil shale ash valorisation process which will help to significantly reduce the environmental impact of oil shale ash in the future. The company plans to file an application for the initiation of a special spatial plan to the local government soon.
TALTECH Professor Andres Trikkel explains what is the climate positive calcium carbonate obtained from oil shale ash
Synthetic calcium carbonate represents the biggest share of the materials produced from oil shale ash. The food and pharmaceutical sectors are the best examples of industries in which natural calcium carbonate is used. As this material originates from the manufacturing industry, the calcium carbonate produced from the oil shale ash of Ida-Viru County will most probably be used as a filler in the paint, plastic and paper industry.
Press release: Ragn-Sells AS submitted patent applications for oil shale ash valorisation process
Environmental company Ragn-Sells AS submitted an application to the Estonian Patent Office to request patents for its innovative oil shale ash valorisation process, which makes it possible to reprocess the majority of the ash waste created in energy generation in Estonia into materials.
Ida-Viru County: where ash hills are turned to climate positive calcium carbonate (PCC)
At present, energy in Estonia is still mainly produced from oil shale because the alternatives do not yet generate the required volumes. The production of oil shale energy generates up to 1 million tonnes of ash waste every year and by valorising this, we can contribute significantly to the reduction of the environmental footprint of our energy generation as a solution which is necessary today. A cleaner living environment in Ida-Viru County and throughout Estonia.
