# Sultech and Canlin teamed up to build first micronized sulfur plant in Alberta, Canada

Publication Date: 22.04.2026, 16:00

The new facility, supported by public funding, will turn energy by-products into low-carbon crop nutrients and help the companies grow internationally.

[Sultech Global Innovation](https://sultechglobal.com/) and Canlin Energy have partnered to develop Alberta’s first commercial micronized sulfur manufacturing facility, highlighting efforts to convert oil and gas by-products into higher-value agricultural inputs. The plant, located at Canlin’s Wildcat Hills Gas Plant west of Calgary, is under construction and scheduled to begin operations in 2027. Supported by a US$5 million investment from Emissions Reduction Alberta, the facility will produce 50,000 metric tons of micronized elemental sulfur annually to improve soil health, crop quality, and fertilizer efficiency.

Founded in 2014 in Alberta, Sultech specializes in micronized elemental sulfur technology, converting recovered sulfur into ultra-fine, sprayable formulations that improve nutrient availability and reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to conventional fertilizers. Its flagship product, SulGro™65, addresses widespread sulfur deficiencies in soils while minimizing nutrient losses. The Alberta facility will serve as a North American production hub and support a broader strategy to integrate energy and agriculture value chains and advance circular-economy practices.

Sultech is also expanding internationally. In November 2025, the company signed a memorandum of understanding with ADNOC Sour Gas at ADIPEC in Abu Dhabi to study and pilot a similar micronized sulfur facility in the United Arab Emirates. The project will integrate Sultech’s patented process at the Shah Gas Plant, one of the world’s largest ultra-sour gas operations, demonstrating the potential to convert sulfur by-products into high-efficiency agricultural and clean-technology inputs. The global micronized sulfur market is expected to exceed USD 800 million by 2030 as demand increases for low-impact, high-performance crop nutrition solutions.
