Transforming the Processing of Critical & Strategic Minerals

We offer specialized solutions for mining and metallurgical applications, including metals processing into metals powders, leveraging advanced technologies to optimize operations and maximize efficiency.

case: electrochemical chromium powder production

We have developed a demonstrator for a South African partner that achieves several milestones:
• Production of high granularity (over 325 mesh, with the possibility to increase to 1200 mesh) spherical metallic chromium powder with a purity of 99.6%, surpassing what is achievable with conventional technology;
• Generation of four additional „by-products” during the process, (aluminosilicates, sodium sulfate,iron oxalate and green hydrogen) which contributes to additional revenue streams and minimize waste.
• Reduced environmental impact, including potential use of renewable energy (PV without inverters), absence of toxins, Cr6+ and halogens, and significantly less waste (5 times) and emissions (20 times less) compered to conventional technology;
• When scaled up, the plant is approximately 10 times less costly than conventional production cycle and eliminates time consuming smelting, roasting and other unnecessary processes.

case: foundry - molding sand distribution system

A system for optimizing the distribution of molding sand during the preparation of molds for the casting process was designed and implemented in the foundry industry. The system was integrated with the components of the press that compacts the molding sand inside the casting molds. This solution allows for the elimination of production defects caused by imperfections in the castings resulting from surface contamination of the molds
