pH7's award-winning closed-loop technology is transforming critical metals extraction, supporting the transition to clean and renewable energy (e.g., hydrogen). This innovative process increases the supply of critical metals—such as copper, platinum, palladium, rhodium, and radium—through an environmentally and economically sustainable approach rooted in the circular economy. The process uses organic, inorganic, and electrochemical methods to recovers metals from primary and secondary resources, including end-of-life materials that traditional methods struggle to process. It reduces wastewater, prevents hazardous chemicals from entering the environment, and lowers CO2 emissions to near zero. This approach makes it possible to sustainably extract the critical metals needed for green energy solutions.
