Sustainable Recycling Expertise
Global Problem
Technological advance and a growing global population is increasing material consumption at a rapid rate. The need for sustainable materials and recycling process design has never been more prevalent to preserve the finite resources available to us.
Our Solution
We design materials and systems with the end-of-life in mind. Our team has expertise in recycling technology development and optimization as well as systems analysis within the industrial ecology space.
Specific Activities
Solvus Global has recently been awarded an NSF SBIR Phase 1 grant to develop an artificially intelligent algorithm to support the advancement of the scrap metal sorting. We have also successfully executed many smaller scale projects focusing on material characterization and sustainable process design.
Expected Impact
Ultimately, we aim to alleviate the reliance upon virgin material to meet the demands of technological and population growth. Our efforts will enable secondary materials to compete functionally with primary materials such that their usage can expand into safety relevant components and into new market applications.
