NEXTCHEM's subsidiary KT Tech has secured a licensing agreement to implement its NX AdWinMethanol® Zero technology at the Pacifico Mexinol facility in Mexico, poised to be the largest ultra-low carbon methanol production facility globally.

Target Information

NEXTCHEM's subsidiary, KT Tech, has secured a licensing contract for the implementation of its proprietary NX AdWinMethanol® Zero technology at the Pacifico Mexinol facility located near Los Mochis, Sinaloa, on Mexico's Pacific coast. This groundbreaking project aims to establish the largest standalone ultra-low carbon chemical production facility globally, with a projected output exceeding 2.1 million tons per year. This ambitious initiative demonstrates a significant advancement in sustainable chemical production.

The Pacifico Mexinol plant is expected to produce around 350,000 metric tons of green methanol and 1.8 million metric tons of blue methanol annually, using natural gas captured carbon dioxide (CO₂). The total investment for this facility is estimated to reach €250 million, covering basic engineering, supply of proprietary and critical equipment, and support for commissioning, startup, and operations of the plant.
