HOUSTON -- Chemex Global, Inc. is pleased to announce it has secured a project award to engineer, procure and construct a 240 MTPD advanced recycling facility in Hebron, Ohio for Freepoint Eco-Systems, LLC ("Freepoint Eco-Systems").

The facility will convert waste plastic otherwise destined for landfill or incineration to a green pyrolysis oil that will be used to create recycled plastic and other valuable products.

Chemex Global will provide complete integration of the facility, which includes specialty materials handling and pyrolysis packages, building renovations, a back-end pyrolysis oil condensing and fractionation system, utilities, storage, load-out capability, and overall facility control systems. Further, Chemex Global will fully commission the facility. The EPC contract includes process and schedule guarantees.

Pipe and module fabrication for the facility will be completed by Chemex Global's parent company, The Shaw Group, at their shops across the U.S., including the state-of-the-art 440,000 square foot module facility in Lake Charles and pipe fabrication facilities in Walker, Louisiana and El Dorado, Arkansas.

"Chemex's ability to simultaneously manage the technical, commercial, and legal aspects of initiating a fixed-price project such as this one in a short period of time was differentiating and impressive," shared Jeff McMahon, Managing Director, Freepoint Eco-Systems. "Their deep modular experience will also provide advantages in ensuring on-budget execution with schedule certainty."

"Our diverse engineering capabilities combined with world-class fabrication assets enabled us to assess the project, minimize field execution to the greatest extent possible, and quickly arrive at definitive agreements to keep Freepoint Eco-Systems' project development plans on schedule," added Matt Rodgers, Chief Commercial Officer, Chemex. "It is a model we look forward to replicating many times in the future."
