Jocelyn Doucet's project aims to help his company take a revolutionary waste transformation technology to the next level. To win the grand prize of $100,000, Doucet needs the help of votes from the general public Canadawide! 

Kengtek, an engineering company that develops innovative technologies for industrial clients all over the world, is ready to take a new Canadian solution to market. It's a technology called Pyrowave, which transforms waste into renewable energy on the spot. Refined over four years and recognized by the international scietific and technical community, the technology was largely developed with a group led by Professor Jamal Chaouki with researcher Jean-Philippe Laviolette as part of a research project financed by Kengtek. Pyrowave has been subjected to advanced tests, but to demonstrate it on a larger scale, the company needs additional funds to build its first commercial unit.

The voting period for the BDC Young Entrepreneur Award 2013 begins May 22 and ends on June 11. To support the project of your choice, visit the competition microsite and vote once a day.
