Honorable Mention, Chemical/Materials Science Category
Utah Innovation Awards 2008
The Utah Innovation Award is sponsored by Stoel Rives LLP and the Utah Technology Council and recognizes innovations and Utah companies that created them. The awards are selected by a Selection Committee of over 60 professionals from Utah’s business, technology and academic communities, with technical expertise in each category. The Selection Committee identified IBC Advanced Technologies, Inc. as worthy of receiving an honorable mention for its innovative bismuth recovery technology.
CHWMEG Facility Review:
SepraMet Demonstrates Sound Environmental Stewardshp
CHWMEG, Inc. is a non-profit trade association comprised of manufacturing and other "industrial" companies. The facilities included in the CHWMEG facility review program are selected by the members, and the evaluations are performed according to a standard protocol by independent and experienced environmental firms under contract to CHWMEG, Inc. The cost of the facility review reports are shared by the member companies. CHWMEG, Inc.'s membership is comprised of companies representing a number of industrial sectors, including chemical, petroleum, and electronic and other manufacturing sectors. Membership currently includes many Fortune 500 companies.
In addition to the CHWMEG audit, the SepraMet facility has been environmentally audited by a number of SepraMet’s customers which consist of Fortune 500 and other major corporations.
SepraMet is committed to the environmentally clean and responsible treatment of metal containing resources using state of the art Molecular Recognition Technology.

Top 40 R&D Winners
Selected in the top one percentile of all awards ever given by R&D Magazine
In commemoration of R&D Magazine's 40th anniversary, the editors of R&D Magazine evaluated all previous R&D 100 winning products and selected the 40 winning products that have made the biggest impact on society and technology. This select group included Empore Rad Disks, with AnaLig® from IBC.
(See R&D Magazine, September, 1999)
Empore Rad Disks - 1996
Researchers at 3M Company, Argonne National Laboratory, and IBC Advanced Technologies collaborated to develop a 500-µm thick membrane structure for the selective adsorption of radioisotopes in aqueous samples.
From R&D Magazine September, 1996
"From fat replacements to superconductors and from articulated airplanes to fingerprint scanners, this year's 34th Annual R&D 100 Awards recognize the wide range of technologically significant products developed over the past year by the world's most creative scientists and engineers.
Rad Disks Simplify Sample Prep
The yearly cost of radiochemical analyses involved in decontaminating Department of Energy sites now exceeds $300 million. To reduce these costs, researchers at DOE's Argonne (Ill.) National Laboratory, 3M, St. Paul, Minn., and IBC Advanced Technologies, American Fork, Utah, have jointly developed a simpler, more cost-effective way to analyze these radionuclides.
The result is Empore Rad Disks for the selective adsorption of radioisotopes in aqueous samples. Measuring 47 mm in diameter and only 500 µm in thickness, Empore Rad Disks fit into existing instrumentation. They are made of polytetrafluoroethylene fibrils (about 10%) embedded with densely packed AnaLig® particles (about 90%). Sorption of target radioisotopes is very efficient: They are concentrated close to the surface of the disk, while non-target radioisotopes simply pass through and remain in the filtrate."
