BioMetallica‘s vision is to be a leader in sustainable precious metal recycling, creating a circular economy that benefits the environment and society.
Our mission is to provide innovative and eco-friendly precious metal recycling solutions that maximize the value of waste materials and minimize the environmental impact of metal production, while providing excellent customer service and creating a sustainable future for all.
More than 80% of the globally generated e-waste is typically incinerated, releasing toxic smoke, causing people serious health problems.
BioMetallica has developed a unique, affordable, and reliable biomimicry solution for the industry, helping our customers save tons of money. Additionally, it is environmentally and human-friendly.
Biometallurgy uses biological agents such as bacteria for metal extraction from ores, minerals and more recently, waste streams. At BioMetallica we are transforming the way we recycle precious metals from spent catalysts and e-wastes using synthetic biology and electrolysis technology.
We have successfully engineered a specific bacterial strain that demonstrates a remarkable increase in biogenic cyanide production, achieving concentrations over 100% higher than its non-engineered counterpart. This breakthrough is crucial for enhancing the efficiency of recycling precious metals from various waste streams.
Our innovative approach not only matches the bioleaching efficiency of conventional methods but also scales effectively for commercial applications. This advancement holds significant potential to improve both the economic and environmental aspects of metal recycling industries.
We have streamlined the recycling process into 4 simple steps: Pre-treatment, Bioleaching, Metal Reduction and Separation & Purification
Spent Autocatalyst (SAC) & E-waste
Ionic metal state via oxidation
Conversion to metallic state
Nano-particles of Pt, Pd, Rh, Au and Ag
Our recycling technology is not just environmentally friendly; it's six times more energy-efficient and three times more cost-effective than current methods. This innovation represents a giant leap forward in sustainable metal recovery.
For every ton of waste feedstock recycled using our bioextraction technology, 44t CO2e of GHG emission is avoided.
BioMetallica's team is a fusion of technical mastery and business insight, poised to address the intricacies of sustainable precious metal recovery. Our team's diverse expertise spans genetic engineering, chemical engineering, sustainability, materials engineering and business management, fostering a comprehensive approach to our endeavors.
