Agreement Value:
$4,000,117.00
Agreement Date:
Mar 4, 2025 - Jun 30, 2026
Description:
pH7 has created an innovative process for extracting and refining of critical metals that will enable the transition to renewable energy in an environmentally and economically sustainable way.pH7 closed loop process applies organic, inorganic, and electro chemistries to reduce the environmental impact of the mining and mineral processes.  This disruptive process enables efficient metal extraction from low grade resources or difficult substrates which are uneconomical or infeasible by current pyro or hydro metallurgy approaches. This project will grow the industry's capacity to extract PGM from end-of-life materials to meet the growing demands of the green, circular and hydrogen economies.
