Congratulations to Dr. Faruque Hasan and his team at Texas A&M University, on their recently announced $1.5M EPA award to develop a “SMART-RECLAIM” framework! The project will focus on refrigerant reclamation technology and market dynamics through the development advanced decision-making and optimization framework for HFC reclamation and reverse logistics, as well as testing of new approaches for separating recovered mixtures. Greater recovery, reclamation, and management of end-of-life high-GWP refrigerants is one of the most important tools at our disposal in the fight to mitigate global warming and prevent catastrophic climate change. Icorium is developing solutions to create sustainable circular economies for HFC refrigerants and other critical chemical mixtures as we navigate the global the transition to sustainable new alternatives. Icorium is looking forward to collaborating with the Texas A&M team on this important effort, providing process modeling and pilot scale experimentation and testing to support the project.

Dr. Kalin Baca is certainly someone to follow! Her entrepreneurial spirit mixed with chemical engineering expertise is paving the way for her company, Icorium Engineering Company, to make a huge impact in overcoming pressing environmental challenges.
Check out our newest blog series on Medium! These interviews are done by students to highlight leading investors and founders across the nation and share their stories. Kara Hageman, UVF-C Intern, currently a Bioengineering PhD Candidate at The University of Kansas, conducted this week's interview! Read about Dr. Kalin Baca, co-founder and COO of Icorium Engineering Company. "While starting a company may be a new adventure for Dr. Kalin Baca, her motivated, go-getter attitude certainly is not. Dr. Baca is co-founder and COO of Icorium Engineering Company, which is developing and commercializing new technologies to separate and recycle refrigerant mixtures. I was fortunate to sit down with Dr. Baca to talk a bit about what led her to founding this start-up and hear about how it is going so far.
