First-of-its-kind, low-cost and eco-friendly technologies for efficient recovery of gold, silver and Platinum Group Metals from waste. The innovation concept of the PEACOC technologies will solve the current and future challenges related to Europe’s dependency on import of critical raw materials from third countries.
Thereby, it will help to diversify the supply of Precious Metals and improve resource efficiency and circularity, while significantly contributing to achieving the ambitious energy and climate targets set in the European Green Deal and promote sustainability. In that context, Europe is the world top consumer of Platinum Group Metals and is becoming highly dependent on imports, which are essential for its economy.
