KBR, a global engineering, construction and services company, announced today that its leading ammonia process technology has been selected by Midwest Fertilizer Corporation for its new fertilizer manufacturing plant in Mt. Vernon, Indiana.
 
The 2,200 metric ton per day ammonia capacity plant will utilize KBR’s proprietary Purifier™ technology that delivers the lowest proven energy consumption in the industry, reduces capital costs and improves overall plant operations. The undisclosed contract value for KBR will be booked into backlog during the fourth quarter of 2013.
