KBR has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Atlas Agro to license KBR’s K-GreeN® technology for Atlas’ planned investment in a series of green nitrate plants.
Under the terms of the MoU, KBR will provide technology licensing, basic engineering design, proprietary equipment and catalyst for the plants, which will produce zero-carbon nitrogen fertilisers. The engineering design for the first plant in the US started in March.
