Research on various recovery processed of rare metals.

We will feedback our experience and technology, gained through years of research on rare metal recovery in collaboration with industry and academia, to the global industrial community.

We provide adsorbents and processes for the high-efficiency and high-purity recovery of lithium from various lithium-containing aqueous solutions, such as seawater, salt lake brine, geothermal water, and black powder from spent LIBs. We offer solutions that maximize the effective utilization of resources.

We are not only recovering lithium but also handling the collection of rare metals such as precious metals and rare earth elements. We aim to circulate valuable resources on Earth and create new value.

From the establishment of the recovery business of lithium and rare metals to its success, we provide thorough support to our customers. Based on years of research and practical experience in domestic and also worldwide, we will work together to outline an optimal business strategy and guide it to realization.

Since 2023 FY, our company and The University of Kitakyushu have been working on the joint research on the development of lithium recovery methods from various resources.

We have established our Hibikino Laboratory near The University of Kitakyushu and assigned several staffs to continually obtain the latest information while working on various developments.

In addition to the lithium adsorbent, there is a wealth of knowledge regarding the recovery processes of valuable metals {platinum group metals (PGMs), and rare earth elements (REEs)} using several hydrometallurgical methods. We can also provide solutions for the recovery processes of PGMs and REEs.
