ElectraMet

ElectraMet is a United States-based startup that specializes in sustainable water purification. Through its innovative technology, ElectraMet addresses the need for copper capture and recovery in microelectronics manufacturing, semiconductor production, and black mass refining for lithium-ion battery recycling. The versatile application of its solution extends to medical device manufacturing, aerospace, electronics waste recycling, and high-value metal finishing industries.

ElectraMet's approach eliminates the complexities of traditional chemical processes, such as the use of coagulants, flocculants, and pH adjustments, thereby reducing sludge production and associated handling costs. Furthermore, its electrochemical process eliminates the need for holding tanks and dwell time, leading to a smaller footprint compared to conventional treatment methods.

The automation of the process, coupled with real-time analytics, allows for enhanced process control, simplifying execution and reducing dependency on human resources. ElectraMet's use of tailored carbon electrode technology enables specific metal removal, particularly copper recovery and recycling, presenting an opportunity to establish a circular economy and create a new income stream.

Founded in 2014, ElectraMet recently attracted Corporate Round investment from Wieland Group on 14 December 2021. The scalability of ElectraMet systems makes them adaptable to various operational sizes and specific requirements, positioning the company for further growth and industry impact.
