Lummus Technology and InnoVent Renewables have announced the signing of a master cooperation agreement (MCA) to jointly license and deploy InnoVent's proprietary continuous tyre pyrolysis technology worldwide.
"This agreement marks the next phase of our partnership with InnoVent, as we work together to scale and advance a proven circular technology," said Leon de Bruyn, President and Chief Executive Officer of Lummus Technology. "It also reflects our continued commitment to reducing tyre waste and building on Lummus' legacy of collaborating with technology innovators to solve complex sustainability challenges."
Earlier this year, Lummus and InnoVent signed a memorandum of understanding, and the MCA solidifies the strategic partnership between the two companies. Under the MCA, Lummus will serve as the exclusive global licensor of InnoVent's tyre pyrolysis technology, which transforms end-of-life tyres into valuable products such as pyrolysis oil, gas, carbon black, and steel. The collaboration will also integrate Lummus' downstream processing technologies to enhance the value of fuel and chemical outputs.
"We are excited to move forward with Lummus in this next phase of our partnership," said Vibhu Sharma, Chief Executive Officer of InnoVent Renewables. "Lummus' complimentary portfolio of technologies and their global presence will be instrumental in scaling up and addressing the environmental and public health challenge posed by the more than one billion end-of-life tyres disposed each year."
InnoVent's technology offers a scalable, end-to-end solution for converting ELT into sustainable fuels and high-value petrochemicals, from pre-processing through purification. The company currently operates a commercial facility in Monterrey, Mexico, capable of processing up to 1 million passenger tyres annually, with plans to expand capacity.
