2. Industrial Development Fund: A $165 million fund targeting early-stage industrial projects. The fund employs tokenized financing models to speed up project execution and minimize operational inefficiencies.
3. Resource Efficiency Program: A $300 million initiative aimed at converting wastewater solids from a chemical manufacturing facility into fertilizer products for North American agriculture. This program addresses both resource demands and industrial operational optimization.
4. Desalination Project in Texas: A $180 million reverse osmosis desalination plant designed to support a large industrial complex. The project begins with $20 million in initial development and equipment procurement, followed by $80 million in subsequent development phases.

Setting New Standards in Environmental Finance

This collaboration aims to establish new benchmarks for infrastructure investing by merging blockchain technology with environmental sustainability. Key features of the partnership include real-time environmental impact monitoring, streamlined project funding mechanisms, enhanced reporting, automated compliance processes, and scalable investment structures.
