Executive Summary

  • Cleango Innovations Inc. announced breakthrough third-party validation results for its MycoSet remediation product, demonstrating significant efficacy in breaking down complex hydrocarbons.
  • The testing, conducted by the Health Canada-certified East Kelowna Agritech Society (EKAS), confirms MycoSet accelerates biodegradation of petroleum pollutants in soils and waterways.
  • The company is immediately proceeding with a global market launch of MycoSet and expanding its testing program to diverse environmental and industrial settings.

Key Details

  • Testing Partner: The study was conducted by East Kelowna Agritech Society (EKAS), a Health Canada-certified laboratory, which is the equity partner AgritechBC Solutions Inc. (in which Cleango holds a 49% ownership stake).
  • Biodegradation Performance (Diesel): MycoSet achieved a mineralization rate of 65% to 72% in diesel-treated systems, compared to 18% to 25% in untreated control samples.
  • Heavy Hydrocarbon Performance (Bitumen): For highly recalcitrant substances like bitumen, MycoSet increased degradation to 32% to 40%, whereas untreated samples showed less than 5% activity.
  • Regulatory Compliance: Testing was performed under rigorous OECD 301B and 302B conditions, ensuring data meets international regulatory requirements.
  • Environmental Safety: Field validation confirmed that the treatment caused no adverse environmental mobilization, ensuring contaminants remain contained during the cleaning process.
  • Strategic Action: Cleango and AgritechBC are moving immediately to launch MycoSet globally and are expanding the testing program to demonstrate versatility in new environments.
