Enerkem

From Waste to a Sustainable Future

Founded in 2000, Enerkem is the result of a desire to produce biofuels and value-added products from otherwise wasted materials.

Our technology was initially inspired by the research and development on gasification of waste materials and syngas conditioning led by Esteban Chornet, Professor Emeritus at the Université de Sherbrooke (Québec, Canada). Professor Chornet and his son Vincent saw the opportunity to further develop this revolutionary technology and bring it to the market by creating Enerkem.

Over the years, Enerkem navigated every stage of development with meticulous care and precision.

Enerkem patented technology converts a wide range of waste and residues into low-carbon fuels and circular chemicals.

Embrace the opportunity to drive the energy transition by joining Enerkem's dynamic team. Bring your expertise and passion to make a difference.
