Aduro Clean Technologies Inc.

Aduro Clean Technologies Inc. is a Canadian chemical technology company headquartered in London, Ontario, Canada. Founded in 2011, the company is dedicated to developing patented water-based technologies that transform low-value feedstocks, such as waste plastics, heavy crude oils, and renewable oils, into higher-value chemicals and fuels. Its mission centers on creating a sustainable future by converting environmental challenges into economic opportunities and reducing reliance on fossil carbon through innovative solutions.

At the core of Aduro's operations is its proprietary Hydrochemolytic™ Technology (HCT), a patented platform that utilizes water and simple catalysts under mild processing conditions to deconstruct complex molecules. HCT offers groundbreaking applications in plastics upcycling, converting mixed, contaminated, and hard-to-recycle plastic waste into valuable feedstocks for chemicals and fuels. Additionally, the technology is employed to upgrade heavy crude oils and bitumen into lighter, more valuable oil, and to transform renewable oils into green fuels and specialty chemicals. This innovative approach operates at lower temperatures than conventional methods, providing both environmental and economic advantages.

Recent developments include Aduro Clean Technologies' uplisting to the Nasdaq Capital Market in November 2024 and its commencement of trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) under the symbol "ACT" in May 2026. Ofer Vicus, Co-founder, has served as CEO since November 2011, leading a management team that includes Mena Beshay (CFO), Eric Appelman (CRO), and William Marcus Trygstad (CTO & Co-founder). The company is actively progressing its Next Generation Process (NGP) Pilot Plant and planning for a First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) industrial project, with Chemelot identified as a potential site. Aduro's commercialization strategy focuses on licensing agreements to accelerate the adoption of its technology.
