Carbon Capture Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of UTEK Corporation (AMEX & LSE-AIM: UTK), was acquired by CSMG Technologies, Inc. in a tax-free stock-for-stock exchange. CSMG Technologies, Inc. issued 371,020 unregistered shares of common stock to UTEK Corporation in exchange for 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Carbon Capture Technologies, Inc. The shares acquired in the exchange are restricted and may only be resold pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933. The value of the consideration will be determined based on a valuation in accordance with UTEK's valuation policy as of the closing date of the transaction.
Carbon Capture Technologies, Inc. holds a worldwide exclusive license to a composition and method for use of a novel Carbon Dioxide (CO2) adsorbent. Researchers at the University of Ottawa have developed recyclable CO2 adsorbents based on surface modified nanoporous silicas. The materials show high adsorption capacity that is both fast and reversible, allowing it to be reused repeatedly in a high throughput periodic cyclic adsorption process. The adsorbents can be used in both wet and dry environments, potentially eliminating significant engineering challenges. The potential uses for the technology include capturing the bulk of C02 emissions from coal-fired power plants in order that these greenhouse gasses could be sequestered and thus reduce the carbon footprint of such facilities, as well as surgical and mine rescue applications.
