Circular Materials is proud to announce that it has submitted an official application to the European Commission, seeking strategic project status for its flagship initiative, RECOVER-IT (Resources Extraction and Circular Optimization Via Effluent Recovery in Italy), under the European Union’s Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA).
RECOVER-IT aims to revolutionize the recovery and recycling of strategic raw materials from industrial wastewater, leveraging our cutting-edge low-carbon intensity technology. The project initially focuses on Italy, where our advanced solutions will transform industrial waste into valuable resources across three Circular Materials Hubs (CMHs).
But the impact goes beyond Italy—this is just the beginning of a broader deployment across Europe.
RECOVER-IT offers Italy and other EU Member States a unique opportunity to recover and recycle significant volumes of critical raw materials that are currently being lost to landfills, surface water, and ecosystems. By re-introducing these materials into industrial production, we are contributing to the creation of a truly sustainable circular economy and supporting the preservation of the environment.
Our project aligns with the EU’s ambitious Green Transition goals by securing a reliable supply of critical raw materials, while driving low-carbon industrial processes across the continent.
We are delighted to be taking this important step towards strengthening Europe’s leadership in sustainability and promoting a resource-efficient, low-carbon future for all. With RECOVER-IT, we are paving the way for a greener, more resilient Europe.
Together, we can RECOVER-IT!
