Global License Sales

The Mura and KBR partnership, beginning in 2021, has already resulted in the licensing of the Hydro-PRT technology by several international petrochemical firms.

Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation, Japan

In June 2021, Mura and KBR were delighted to announce the first Licensing and Engineering Agreement with Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation (MCC), which plans to deploy the Hydro-PRT plastic recycling system in Japan to reduce plastic waste and create a circular plastics economy.

This first project will be based at MCC’s Ibaraki plant and is expected to complete construction in 2024. It will have the capacity to process 25,000 tonnes of plastic waste per year – with MCC studying the possibility of increasing capacity in the future. Initially, the project will aim to use post-industrial plastics.

With 9 million tonnes of plastic waste arising annually in Japan, MCC will seek to extend the scope of the project and target these plastics as raw materials.

LG Chem, South Korea

A new partnership and license sale between Mura, KBR and leading global chemical producer LG Chem was announced in January 2022. This partnership will support the continued international roll-out of Hydro-PRT, with the first project in South Korea to initially recycle up to 25,000 tonnes of plastic waste annually.

South Korea is a crucial market for deploying Hydro-PRT, being one of the world’s leaders in plastic consumption per capita. The country aims to reduce its plastic waste by 20 percent by 2025

GS Caltex, South Korea

Mura Technology and KBR announced the sale of a technology license to GS Caltex in October 2022.

This 50,000 tonne per annum advanced recycling facility will convert waste plastics into raw materials for conversion into new plastics.
