KBR awarded ammonia cracking contract


KBR says that they have been awarded a second ammonia cracking technology contract by Hanwha Impact Corporation for its clean power generation facility in Korea. Under the terms of the agreement, KBR will provide technology licensing, proprietary engineering design and equipment, and services for a 214 t/d hydrogen facility. The plant will use KBR’s proprietary H2ACT® ammonia cracking technology to produce clean hydrogen and contribute to Korea’s decarbonisation goals.

“We are grateful for the trust Hanwa has placed in KBR to support their growth plans,” said Jay Ibrahim, President, KBR Sustainable Technology Solutions. “KBR’s innovative H2ACT technology was previously selected by Hanwha for large-scale, sustainable hydrogen production and this new award utilizes a design intended to further enhance the cost-efficiency of the project.”

Mining licence approved for Ammaroo phosphate project

Austrlai’s Northern Territories Government has approved a mining licence for Verdant Minerals’ Ammaroo phosphate project. The approval follows the granting of two mineral leases in March and represents a critical step towards construction and mining operations at one of the world’s largest phosphate resources. Verdant estimates the value of production over the life of the mine to exceed $15 billion. Verdant says that securing the mining licence puts the project firmly on track to reach a final investment decision and commence construction as early as mid-2027. Located 200 kilometres south-east of Tennant Creek, the Ammaroo phosphate deposit contains more than one billion tonnes of phosphate ore.
