Innovations in Metal Extraction, Solvometallurgy, Proton-exchange Membrane (PEM) Electrolyzers Hydrometallurgy, and Mine Waste Valorization

This edition of the Energy & Power Systems (EPS) TOE features information about the implementation of Solvometallurgy for metal extraction. The TOE covers innovations within the acid leaching methods to recover metals from complex ores and mine tailings. The TOE also highlights advancements in wastewater treatment methodologies at upstream sites. The TOE provides the latest innovations in microinverters for advanced monitoring of solar panels. Finally, the focal point of the TOE will also cover the novel method for catalyst-based leaching which is leveraged for extraction of copper from Chalcopyrite.



The Energy and Power Systems TOE provides insights on the latest advances in the broad range of technology related to the energy industry. The topics regularly presented range from energy storage technologies (solid-state batteries, solar chemical storage and other advanced energy storage devices) to non-renewable energy such as oil and gas. Special emphasis is given to emerging areas in the renewable sector such as photovoltaics, wind energy, and geothermal energy, and emerging alternative fuels such as hydrogen, syngas, ethanol and biofuels. The EPS TOE keeps clients abreast of the latest R&D developments at major corporate and academic research centers, provides competitor intelligence and helps create strategic alliances.



The Energy and Environment cluster provides global insights and intelligence on a wide variety of disruptive emerging technologies and platforms ranging from energy storage, advanced batteries, solar and wind energy, to unconventional oil, bioenergy, geothermal energy, and energy transmission.
