At ECO2 MAGNESIA, sustainable development is not just a far-away goal, it is our identity statement. ECO2 MAGNESIA is proud to have developed a patented technology that creates world class, ultra-pure (99%+) magnesia, using an innovative process that decontaminates abandoned mine tailings while directly reducing CO2 emissions.
The ECO2 story
ECO2 Magnesia, the world’s first green MgO
Invented at the laboratories of the Center Eau Terre Environnement of the National Institute for Scientific Research (INRS-ETE) in Quebec City, Canada, our cutting-edge technology was specially designed to create tangible environmental benefits while producing a superior product.
The ECO2 story is the product of a unique “Made in Quebec” industrial collaboration between academic research professionals, industry experts and environmental technology specialists.

Current plans envision construction of a plant with 60,000 tons of installed capacity, which will decontaminate more than 360,000 tons of mine tailings per year and will reduce 160,000 tons of greenhouse gases per year.

Our plant is excited to employ more than 100 highly paid professionals and help create many more secondary and tertiary jobs in the community.
