Case Studies

 

METALLICO will demonstrate in four different case studies that the (critical) metals lithium, cobalt, copper, manganese and nickel can be sustainably produced and recovered by upscaling the five METALLICO processes in different industrial sites, from lab scale to an industrially relevant environment.
