Vow ASA: Vow in Position for Caribbean Carbon Recycling Project

Published by Todd Bush on December 1, 2023

Vow ASA (ticker OSE:VOW) has signed a long-term cooperation agreement and a long-term equipment supply agreement and been selected to be the exclusive provider for large-scale Carbon Refinery® projects expected to break ground in the Caribbean in 2024.

The agreements are entered into with Circon Energy LLC (Circon) and its sister company ReCO2, LLC (ReCO2) respectively.

Multiple projects are under advanced development, the first of which will deploy 19 lines of Vow's equipment to process feedstocks into low-carbon fuels, biochar and recovered carbon black without any direct emissions. Subject to the completion of final engineering and design works, ReCO2 anticipates executing a purchase order with Vow in the first quarter of 2024.

'We look forward to cooperating with Circon and ReCO2 to develop their business model and their portfolio of projects. We are impressed with their passion and commitment to ushering in the circular economy and their pioneering energy transition, which will produce efficient energy, reform used materials, create valuable resources, and reduce carbon footprint. Our large CHE pyrolysis reactor will be a central piece of equipment in the planned Carbon Refinery® projects,' said Henrik Badin, CEO of Vow ASA.

With Vow's pyrolysis reactor inside, the Carbon Refinery® will be processing feedstock sourced from organic components of municipal solid wastes, plastics, end-of-life tires, storm debris, wood, and agricultural wastes into low-carbon fuels, biochar, recovered carbon black, and other coproducts.
