CIRCULAR HYDROMETALLURGY
Genuine breakthroughs in hydrometallurgy will not come from the use of neoteric solvents like ionic liquids or deep-eutectic solvents, but rather from a deep understanding of hydro-processes at a molecular level. Hydrometallurgy needs to evolve to low-energy-input circular hydrometallurgy.
FACILITIES
SOLVOMET ISC offers state-of-the-art analytical, lab-scale and mini-pilot-scale infrastructure for the development and optimisation of circular hydrometallurgical unit operations (e.g. leaching, solvent extraction…) and/or comprehensive flowsheets.
FLAGSHIP DOMAINS
Development of (circular) hydrometallurgical flowsheets; Mini-pilot validation; Thermodynamic modelling; Advanced leaching processes; Hydrometallurgical applications of SX & IX; Chemical & mineralogical characterisation; Forensic hydrometallurgy
SET UP A PROJECT?
SOLVOMET ISC is your experienced partner to co-develop circular hydrometallurgical solutions in a bilateral, confidential & flexible collaboration. We offer both short-term projects (3-12 months) and long-term, framework agreements (multiple years).
