Kingston Process Metallurgy Inc. (KPM)

Kingston Process Metallurgy Inc. (KPM) is an integrated contract chemical process development company. KPM integrates lab-based research, backed by a fundamental knowledge of chemistry, process modelling, and economic evaluation to give our clients meaningful results. We assist companies in determining a development plan that leads to clarification of the key operating parameters to give a more accurate estimate of CAPEX/OPEX. As well, KPM does conceptual process design with unit operations including heat and mass balances and flowsheet development. The preliminary process design can then be used by an engineering firm to give a detailed feasibility study and the next stage can be handled in KPM's pilot plant. KPM can help companies with: - Experimental process development and optimization - Techno-economic modeling - Process modeling and flowsheet development KPM owns a 12,000 ft² facility with 5 flexible laboratories, an analytical lab (with an ICP, AA, fire assay), SEM-EDX, and on-site design and fabrication capabilities for custom test equipment. We also own a 10,000 ft² pilot plant within a block of our labs to do scale up process development. A third building houses our analytical equipment (SEM-EDX), and our sister company, Kingston Metals & Materials, operates an aluminum foundry in the same area. Please contact us at: info@kpm.ca
