Startup recycler Cyclic Materials is stepping out to commercial operation with the opening of its first-phase plant in Canada and two new supply chain deals – one with Solvay in Brussels and another with Vacuumschmelze of Germany who has a new magnet plant now under construction in the USA.
In early June, the Toronto-based company opened its Hub100 plant in Kingston, Ontario. The plant is the first scaled version of Cyclic’s hydrometallurgical technology, REEPure, and is positioned to demonstrate the feasibility of the technology at a commercial scale. The plant has a design capacity to recycle 100 tons of magnetic material per year, producing recycled mixed rare earth oxides (rMREO) that can be reused in the rare earth magnet supply chain, as well as nickel and cobalt hydroxides. […]
Neo Performance Materials has agreed with Meteoric Resources for offtake of 3,000 metric tons of total rare earth oxide per year from Meteoric’s Caldeira Project in Minas Gerais, Brazil to supply Neo’s magnet manufacturing plant in Estonia. […]
Envipro Holdings, a major metals recycling company based in Japan, and HyProMag located in the UK have begun a collaboration on the recycling of rare earth magnets that will involve operations of both companies in Japan and Europe.
