Zeotech Has Filed Patent Applications Following a MoU Signing With Protekta

13th March 2024

Zeotech could advance its mineral processing technology in North America after executing a memorandum of understanding (MoU) for the potential offtake of its man-made zeolites with animal nutrition producer Protekta.

The MoU with Protekta, a frontrunner in animal nutrition innovation, lays the groundwork for discussions leading to a potential offtake agreement for manufactured zeolites.

Zeotech has filed patent applications and has developed in-house IP, to produce manufactured zeolites from Kaolin, Fly Ash and Lithium By-product, and is actively continuing its research and development in these areas.

Demonstrating promising results, its products have proven effective in curbing landfill methane emissions, highlighting the potential environmental advantages.

This partnership stems from Zeotech's provision of product samples to Protekta in December 2022 for testing and analysis.

Now, this collaboration advances to the supply of a larger sample for additional commercial validation.

Zeotech's focus on manufacturing zeolites from by-products not only positions it as an innovator in mineral processing technology but also aligns with sustainable practices by utilising waste materials effectively.

The partnership between Zeotech and Protekta aims to transform animal nutrition by incorporating manufactured zeolite into products, potentially preventing diseases like subclinical hypocalcaemia in cows.

This collaboration highlights the potential of mineral processing technology and sustainable practices, enabling Zeotech's expansion into North America and underlining the critical role of strategic partnerships in technology and sustainability.
