LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / July 13, 2021 / Clean Vision Corporation (OTC PINK:CLNV), a holding company that acquires and operates sustainable cleantech and green energy businesses, today announced that its Clean-Seas subsidiary has signed a Letter of Intent with the Mayor of Naranjal, in the Guayas Province of Ecuador, to establish a public-private joint venture partnership in which Clean-Seas will deploy a waste plastic-to-energy processing plant.
The 30-year agreement, signed July 9, by Naranjal Mayor Ab Luigi Rivera Gutierrez, states that Naranjal has committed to delivering its municipal solid waste (MSW) of 200 metric tons daily to the Clean-Seas facility - to be built on land granted by the government - ensuring that Clean-Seas will have a long-term supply of feedstock to render the project financially compelling.
In his Letter to Clean-Seas, Mayor Gutierrez wrote: "This MSW is currently being put in large landfills and creating an environmental challenge for the Naranjal region." He adds, "We look forward to starting the detailed negotiation process for establishing a public-private partnership with the Clean Seas JV for the 30-year MSW feedstock agreement and bringing this vital technology to Naranjal, for remediating the MSW in the region to reduce its environmental impact and avoid the imminent saturation of local landfills such as Las Iguanas."
Clean-Seas has partnered with EcoVerde, an Ecuadorean company, to promote the responsible and practical repurposing of MSW into valuable environmentally friendly commodities. The Naranjal project has an estimated cost of $30 million, and the Company expects that some of the capital to initiate its launch will come from EcoVerde and its partners.
Expected revenue from the plant is approximately $13.5 million annually, providing a project payback period of less than three years. The plant's output will consist of clean-burning diesel fuel, bio-char, and industrial oil; it will also generate approximately 70,000 carbon credits annually. Clean-Seas, through its recently announced JV partnership with GGII, has an off-take agreement in place with a multinational oil company for its clean, sulfur-free diesel fuel.
"This is a huge first step, and validation of Clean-Seas' longstanding efforts, to penetrate Latin America," said Dan Bates, Clean Vision Chief Executive Officer. "Upon completion, the plant in Ecuador will be the foundation upon which we plan to build throughout the region.
"It's become clear that countries in emerging economies as well as those in the developed world are faced with a waste crisis and the Clean-Seas solution can be an important, value-added solution. The first ‘domino' is always the most difficult, after which I expect an accelerating number of our proposals will be invited and accepted. We anticipate announcing additional locations throughout the region, this summer, that will commit to deploying our technology."
