As part of the overall transaction share swap, Stop Waste Holdings, owners of Stop Waste, have also made an investment into Licella.

iQR will be one of the first companies globally to combine physical and chemical recycling, at a time when the world is searching for new recycling pathways following China’s effective ban on imported foreign waste.”

The key has generally been to find feedstock owners who can realize a substantial lift in the value of the residues they control by applying the Cat-HTR platform.

Moreover, it’s another worthy competitor to the likes of Enerkem and Fulcrum BioEnergy in terms of presenting useful value uplifts to clients with municipal waste resources.”
