Circular hydrometallurgy for energy-transition metals ADG-CIRMET. KU Leuven
CIRMET will lead to a new approach to hydrometallurgy, called “circular hydrometallurgy”, with a focus on the design of energy-efficient flowsheets or unit processes that consume a minimum amount of reagents and produce virtually no waste. CIRMET has the ambitious goal to replace the traditional, linear hydrometallurgical flowsheets for extraction and refining of the “energy-transition” metals cobalt and nickel into a next-generation, ...
