MinE-UP focuses on extracting critical metals like selenium, cobalt, and nickel from sewage sludge using phytomining techniques. This project aims to promote a circular economy by transforming waste into valuable resources while restoring degraded mined lands and supporting local communities.
The global consumption of metals and metalloids is increasing rapidly owing to an ever-growing demand from technology and renewable energy industries.
These include selenium (Se), cobalt (Co), and nickel (Ni) for which the 2050 projected consumption is expected to be 5 to 10-folds higher than today.
