Phoenix Metals is developing one of Europe’s first circular technologies for extracting critical materials, like vanadium and other metals. Instead of mining new vanadium to produce battery-grade electrolyte, we recover it from existing industrial residues: fly ash, steel slags and other metal-rich waste streams.
Heavy Fuel Oil (HFO) combustion
The EU’s Critical Raw Materials Act aims to achieve 25%
recycled critical materials by
2030.
Progress
25% by 2030
Based on 100 000 tonnes slag processed for recycling critical metals in 2030.
Our proprietary process combines hydrometallurgy with advanced separation technologies. No toxic solvents. No ammonia. And with a carbon-negative footprint.

Our approach is grounded in responsible and green principles and secured by continuous innovation. From proof-of-concept to product development: we lead with purpose and apply our principles to every step in the process.
Circular and renewable. We recover critical metals from existing waste, reducing environmental impact and driving a circular economy.
Our solvent- and ammonia-free, low-temperature process is designed to cut emissions and produce zero waste.
We operate within Europe’s industrial base to support industrial independence and supply chain resilience.
Our process is fully owned, tested and scaled by years of dedicated and protected R&D.
