The Chemours Company (“Chemours”) (NYSE: CC), a global chemistry company, today announced that it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University (N.C. A&T),
As part of the three-year agreement, Chemours will fund faculty-led research projects, which will include N.C. A&T graduate students. The research will focus on areas of mutual interest, such as driving new science in water treatment to help advance Chemours’ 2030 Corporate Responsibility Commitment goal to reduce process emissions of fluorinated organic chemicals by 99% or more.
As part of the partnership N.C. A&T will issue an annual call for research proposals on topics of joint interest, collaborating with Chemours to identify and select proposals. N.C. A&T will lead the execution of the research proposal with input and feedback from Chemours’ scientists and engineers. In addition, Chemours and N.C. A&T will work together to acquire external funding through government agencies that could help build a Center of Excellence in water treatment at N.C. A&T, and potentially expand into other areas of mutual interest.
