Brine mining
Brines hold valuable metals in low concentrations, leading to challenging, energy- and water-intensive processes. Capturing more value from metals while conserving energy and water is now possible.
The Platform:
BioMagnetics™
Utra-selective bioadsorption chemistry that can only be built at scale through biology.
The BioMagnetics™ adsorbents allow for customizable metal selectivity, using the power of biology. Scalable solution designed for harsh industrial conditions that contains no live cells, making implementation into your process easy.
The MicroMiner
Process
Plug In
BioMagnets™ are delivered in reusable cartridges for easy integration into you current process.
Flow Through
You metal-containing liquid flows through the BioMagnets™ cartridges. Target metals are selectively recovered with > 99% efficiency.
Metal Out
Captured metals elute as a concentrated, high-purity solution ready for precipitation and direct reuse.
Industry applications
We make critical raw material recovery scalable and profitable. Easy to deploy in existing infrastructure or to launch new circular processes at lower cost.
EV batteries
Hydrometallurgical metal recovery is challenged by complex chemistries, varying inputs, and need for very high recovery rates. Lower operating cost, lower CAPEX and a greener profile are possible.
Together we can shift global metal supply from ground extraction to intelligent recovery.
”Our core scientific advantage is precision‑engineered biology that transforms how the world sources its critical materials.
We design programmable systems that recover what’s already in circulation, shifting the future from extraction to intelligent reuse.
