Why ZAP?
What makes us unique?
-
Our unorthodox approach requires 35-80% fewer chemical quantities (e.g. acids) in a less caustic environment (low temperature)
-
Plasma treatment replaces NaOH roasting
-
Operation can be done locally as opposed to sending to China for processing
-
Shorter value chain, with less complex chemical requirements
-
NORMs can be extracted at higher recoveries in the same steps
-
Significantly lower CAPEX and OPEX in production of REE metals
-
Can process complex ores where conventional methods cannot
-
Many smaller scale operations easy to do
-
Can now optimize plant circuit efficiency directly to individual elements and feed ores
-
Opportunity for additional revenue from high value products
-
Membrane filtration replaces conventional solvent extraction
