In early 2022, Lucent Bio contracted two independent consulting firms, Viresco Solutions and SAISS Consulting, to provide insight into the environmental benefits of manufacturing and using Soileos Zinc and Soileos Iron and the carbon emissions offset potential of Soileos Zinc.

Lucent Bio has now released a whitepaper entitled 'Environmental Footprint of Soileos' that describes the cradle-to-gate assessment of manufacturing Soileos and its climate change mitigation potential. This whitepaper can be downloaded for free at https://hello.lucentbiosciences.com/environmental-footprint
For each tonne of Soileos applied to growing corn, soybeans or canola, an estimated GHG benefit of 7-9 tonnes of CO2 may be achieved;
The GHG manufacturing footprint of Soileos is about 1/4th of the footprint of Zinc EDTA and about 1/6th of the footprint of Iron EDTA;
The manufacturing process of Soileos requires around 1.5x less water, 4x less energy, and generates 5x fewer air pollutants than EDTA.
These findings will be presented on November 12th in the Canadian Pavilion at the 2022 United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP 27) in Sharm El Sheikh, Egypt. This panel is titled "From the Ground Up: Sustainable Agriculture Solutions for Food Security," and it will focus on how Saskatchewan is leading the way with sustainable practices and systems that not only increase productivity but also sequester carbon.
