LONDON, Ontario, Oct. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Aduro Clean Technologies Inc. (“Aduro” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: ADUR) (CSE: ACT) (FSE: 9D5), a clean technology company using the power of chemistry to transform lower-value feedstocks, like waste plastics, heavy bitumen, and renewable oils, into resources for the 21st century, today announced it has begun a global site-selection process as part of its Demonstration Plant program, with a focus on locations across Canada, Europe, and Mexico.
In the Next Generation Process (NGP) Pilot Plant, Aduro is validating its technical basis for scale-up, confirming key equipment choices, and generating the data needed to optimise scale-sensitive parameters. The NGP Pilot Plant remains on schedule, and preparations for the Demonstration Plant builds directly on this foundation. Site selection is a critical step, as it provides the basis for jurisdictional permitting requirements and economic modeling, and ensures access to reliable feedstock supply, sorting and collection infrastructure, and the utilities and workforce needed for effective operations.
In recent months, a multidisciplinary team spanning engineering, operations, finance, and commercial development have advanced the project through a structured review process. The site-selection project is progressing efficiently, and the Company expects to finalize a shortlist of candidate locations before the end of the calendar year with a final decision shortly after.
As part of this work, the team is applying standardized evaluation criteria, including:
“Advancing site selection is a critical step in the Demonstration Plant program,” said Ofer Vicus, Chief Executive Officer. “The process allows Aduro to begin detailed permitting and economic modeling, guided by clear criteria such as feedstock access, logistics, certification readiness, and regional incentives. By approaching this work with discipline and foresight, we are creating the conditions for a facility that demonstrates robust environmental and commercial performance, while ensuring the program remains on schedule and preserves options for future scale-up.”
