HOUSTON, April 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HyOrc Corporation (OTCQB: HYOR) today announced the successful completion of the on-site process verification phase with Bureau Veritas, a globally recognized testing, inspection, and certification body, for its waste-to-methanol synthesis technology.

The verification program, conducted over multiple site visits, assessed the performance, stability, and operational characteristics of HyOrc’s integrated RDF-to-methanol system. The Company expects to receive formal certification from Bureau Veritas following completion of final documentation.

This milestone represents a critical step toward commercial deployment of HyOrc’s technology and supports the advancement of its planned pilot facility in Porto, Portugal, as well as its industrial-scale project under development in Bulgaria.

“Completion of the Bureau Veritas verification process is a significant milestone as we transition from development to deployment,” said Reginald Fubara, CEO of HyOrc. “Independent technical validation is a key requirement for project financing and provides important third-party confirmation of the robustness and scalability of our platform.”

HyOrc’s technology converts Refuse-Derived Fuel (RDF) into high-purity methanol through a process combining gasification, syngas conditioning, and catalytic synthesis. The Company believes this approach provides a scalable and cost-competitive pathway to low-carbon fuel production aligned with global decarbonization and waste diversion objectives.
Further updates will be provided upon receipt of formal certification.
