Agreement Value:
$500,000.00
Agreement Date:
Sep 15, 2024 - Nov 15, 2026
Description:
As part of the international consortium project “[EWPPMGU]”, this project focuses on industrial research and development to recover critical minerals like Nickel, Cobalt, Lithium, Platinum, and Palladium from electronic waste (E-waste) and battery systems. Utilizing advanced chemistry, it aims to expand Excir's innovative extraction process to additional critical mineral-rich feedstocks identified by WEEE Scotland Ltd. and The Royal Mint (TRM). By building on TRM's success in using Excir’s chemistry to extract gold from E-waste, the project seeks to broaden the range of extractable metals and develop commercially scalable solutions to enhance the circularity of these essential resources.
