Agilyx, a company that converts waste plastics to fuels and chemicals, has announced a collaborative agreement with Monroe Energy to supply up to 2500 bpd of Agilyx's synthetic feedstock.

Agilyx derives the feedstock, Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)-registered Agilyx Synthetic Crude Oil (ASCO) product, through a proprietary waste plastics recycling technology.

Agilyx has agreed to supply ASCO to Monroe Energy, a wholly owned subsidiary of Delta Air Lines. Monroe will refine the ASCO into jet fuel for Delta. Agilyx plans to locate a production facility near Monroe's refinery, which is located just outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, US, developing the plant in phases until it reaches a production capacity of 2500 bpd by the end of 2020.
