Seeking industrial and strategic partners for circular economy technologies

About

We are currently seeking industrial, technological and strategic partners interested in pilot-scale validation, scale-up development and commercialization opportunities for sustainable circular economy technologies.

The technology under development is NeWLOife, an innovative supercritical CO₂-based process for the regeneration of waste lubricant oils. The technology enables the recovery of valuable base oil fractions from complex and difficult-to-process waste streams, providing a greener alternative to conventional re-refining processes while supporting circular economy and waste valorisation strategies.

Alternatively, we are also interested in partners to develop sustainable technologies for critical raw materials recovery from end-of-life lithium-ion batteries.

We are particularly interested in connecting with partners from the areas of waste management, lubricants, industrial process engineering, sustainability, cleantech and circular economy.
