BioMinE
BioMinE is aimed at "the production of tomorrow" and involves biotechnological research to provide "radical changes in the Basic Materials industry for cleaner, safer and more eco-efficient production". The objective of BioMinE is to develop sustainable solutions covering the whole life cycle of products and equipment.Technological breakthroughs will allow the integration of innovative biotechnology based processes for recovery and/or removal of metals from primary materials such as ores and concentrates, secondary materials such as mining wastes, metallurgical slags, metal-bearing scrap and combustion/power plant ashes. Processes will be developed, which give consideration for eco-design, eco- and renewable materials and zero waste, with the aim of protecting people and the environment.
