TSX-V: CST

QUEBEC CITY, Oct. 17, 2017 /PRNewswire/ - CO2 Solutions Inc. (or the "Corporation") (TSXV: CST) is pleased to announce that it has won the Gold Leaf Award for Emerging Company of the year in the agricultural and industrial sector.

On October 16, 2017, BIOTECanada announced the winners of its annual Gold Leaf Awards and, more specifically, that CO2 Solutions Inc. had won the Emerging Company of the Year Award. Launched in 2001, the Gold Leaf awards are given annually to recognize both companies and individuals who have made significant contributions to the biotech industry in Canada. The Awards' importance to the recipients and the industry more broadly has grown significantly over the years.

"We are very excited to receive this prize as it recognizes the cutting-edge aspect of our technology and confirms our progress to commercialization," said Evan Price, President and Chief Executive Officer of CO2 Solutions. 

"BIOTECanada is proud to announce CO2 Solutions as winner of a 2017 Gold Leaf Award for emerging agriculture/industrial company. One of the promises of biotechnology is that it can help reduce the environmental impact of traditional manufacturing and industrial processes in agriculture, forestry, and chemical production. It is this strength that establishes Canada's biotech industry as a leader in developing the solutions to address global social and economic challenges emerging from population growth and a changing climate. CO2 Solutions has developed an incredible technology for the enzymatic capture of CO2 emissions from large sources such as coal-fired plants and aluminum refineries. The platform generates high-purity CO2 ideal for utilization applications and reduces costs, which makes it attractive to businesses as they prepare for the Federal government's promised implementation of a carbon tax in the near future," indicated Andrew Casey, President and CEO BIOTECanada.
