G3C Technologies Timeline
February 2015: G3C Technologies Corporation (G3CT) was incorporated as a New Jersey C Corporation - at the time the corporation was registered with the name Long Arc Technologies Corporation (LAT).
March 2015: G3CT received initial private funding of $1,000,000.
July 2015: Built G3CT’s core R&D team in Georgia and set Waste to Wealth (W2W) as company’s general direction with focus on scrap tire conversion to recovered Carbon Black (rCB).
November 2015: The Bench Experimental Reactor for rCB product development purpose was built and commissioned in G3CT's Tbilisi Lab.
May 2016: By optimizing the bench reactor operation the G3CT R&D team succeeded in producing high structure and very high surface area specialty rCB suitable for semi-conductive applications.
August 2016: A Horizontal G3C Reactor Pilot System designed for producing high surface area rCB was built and commissioned in G3CT's Tbilisi Lab.
August 2016: G3CT started R&D of G3C Enrichment Technology for removing ash from rCB in order to produce high purity & high market value products.
April 2017: The experimental G3C Enrichment process was able to reduce the ash content of rCB sample from >12% to <0.5% (purity required for very demanding semi-conductive applications).
May 2017: G3CT (at the time Long arch Technologies) was awarded a US Patent (US 9,663,662) "A System and Method for Tire Conversion into Carbon Black, Liquid and Gaseous Products" by US PTO.
May 2017: G3CT registered a US Trademark by US PTO - GREEN3 CONVERSION®, representing triple GREEN approach (no hazardous pollution/lower carbon footprint; no fossil sources feedstock; no energy from fossil sources).
September 2017: G3CT received private funding of $1,000,000.
October 2017: The company name was changed to G3C Technologies Corporation (G3CT), which aligns well with the US registered trademark GREEN3 CONVERSION (G3C); the new name was registered with the state of New Jersey.
January 2018: Started G3C Technology Commercialization Project in Georgia.
June 2018: G3CT received private funding of $500,000.
June 2018: G3CT filed national phase patent applications in Europe, China and India.
August 2018: G3CT filed a national phase patent applications in Canada.
November 2018: G3CT has launched a Reg CF crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine (www.startengine.com) investment platform.
February 2019: G3CT was awarded a Canadian Patent (3,015,887) "A System and Method for Tire Conversion into Carbon Black, Liquid and Gaseous Products" by Canadian Intellectual Property Office (CIPO).
March 2019: G3CT fully commissioned a Pilot Vertical G3C Reactor, capable of producing high grade rCB in its Tbilisi Lab.
May 2019: G3CT has revealed the capabilities of its state of the art G3C technology at the first Recovered Carbon Black Congress in Berlin.
September 2019: G3CT has completed a Reg CF crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine (www.startengine.com) investment platform with total $260K+ investments committed.
December 2019: G3CT received private funding of $920K+.
April 2020: G3CT was awarded a Indian Patent (335,664) "System and Method for Tire Conversion into Carbon Black, Liquid and Gaseous Products" by The Indian Patent Office.
October 2020: Post-processing (magnetic separation, milling/classifying and pelletizing) Capability was implemented at G3CT R&D lab in Tbilisi, Georgia .
