Elaborating on the company's plans in the coming year, Esmaeil Ghanbari said the partnerships are in the form of sales of know-how, transfer of technologies to the country and acquisition of advanced technical savvy.
Ghanbari said PRTC will be primarily focused on development of new catalysts and chemicals, research services and conducting research on new technologies during the year, beginning on March 21.
Last week, PRTC signed a contract for commercialization of SAC500 catalyst with Shazand Petrochemical Company.
The research center has held talks with the Persian Gulf Petrochemical Industries Company (PGPIC) regarding the project and will soon sign a new deal with the holding, the CEO added.
The PRTC official said, "30 percent of the company's activities in the coming year will be devoted to industry-focused projects."
Ghanbari emphasized his company's seriousness in reaching out for leading research centers across the country and the globe in its future activities.
