Shell breidt ook weer uit in de recycling van catalysatoren in samenwerking met AMG:
Amsterdam, 26 October 2020 (Regulated Information) --- AMG Advanced Metallurgical Group N.V. ("AMG", EURONEXT AMSTERDAM: "AMG") is pleased to announce that Shell & AMG Recycling B.V. signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) today with Shandong Yulong Petrochemical Co., Ltd. to enter into exclusive arrangements to evaluate the potential for construction and operation of a spent catalyst recycling facility in Yantai, China.
The MOU will allow Shandong Yulong Petrochemical Co., Ltd and Shell & AMG Recycling B.V. to explore the feasibility of building a world class facility to reclaim valuable metals by recycling spent residue upgrading catalysts generated by refineries in China. Residue upgrading catalysts help refineries upgrade the bottom of the oil barrel into more valuable products, including generation of petrochemicals feedstocks. Such a facility would help maximize the benefits from China’s natural resources while addressing the need to provide environmentally responsible management of spent residue upgrading catalysts.
