Idemitsu Kosan Co.,Ltd.
JNC Engineering Corporation (Head office: Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture; President: Hiroshi Mino; hereinafter "JNCE") and Idemitsu Kosan Co.,Ltd., Ltd. (Head office: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Shunichi Kito Kito; hereinafter "Idemitsu Kosan") will begin an Resources to recycle used plastics *1 (oil chemical recycling*2) generated during the construction of an oil chemical recycling facility for Chemical Recycle Japan, Co., Ltd. (Head office: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; President: Yoshihiko Okamura; hereinafter "CRJ"), a subsidiary of Idemitsu Kosan.
CRJ plans to construct an oil chemical recycling facility (scheduled to begin commercial operation in fiscal year 2025) in an area adjacent to Idemitsu Chiba Complex, with JNCE responsible for the design and construction of the facility.
In this initiative, JNCE will carefully separate and collect the used plastics generated during the construction of the facility. CRJ will use these used plastics as a raw material to produce refined oil through its oil chemical recycling technology, and will confirm whether the refined oil can be used as a raw material for Idemitsu Kosan's petrochemicals and Petroleum.
In addition, after the completion of the facility, we aim to utilize Idemitsu Kosan's oil refining and petrochemical facilities to produce "renewable chemicals" and "renewable Petroleum" *3 from the used plastics generated through this project and the refined oil derived from used plastics generated when JNCE constructs other facilities.
