Clustering workshop: The use of ionic liquids and Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) for metal recovery

How is Research and Development supporting Europe’s leadership in metal recovery? Wednesday, 11 May 2022, four Horizon 2020 projects – PEACOC, ION4RAW, CROCODILE and TARANTULA, co-organised the clustering workshop “The use of ionic liquids and Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) for metal recovery’’. The event highlighted the latest Research and Development (R&D) results and experts discussed the challenges and opportunities for the recycling and recovery of technologically critical and valuable metals with the use of ionic liquids (IL) and deep eutectic solvents (DES). In order to mitigate resource vulnerability, the European Commission wants to secure the supply of these materials by promoting EU-based mining and the recycling of critical raw materials (read more in the European Raw Materials Alliance). For this reason, the European Union is supporting initiatives to secure the supply of critical materials through recycling. Among the different chemical alternatives proposed, the application of IL and DES stands out in the chemical process applied within the recovery and recycling of critical materials. IL and DES can replace the usually toxic and flammable organic solvents reduce chemical waste and improve the safety of chemical processes and products. Moreover, they may offer potential as an environmentally sustainable alternative to conventional separation processes - involving the use of aqueous acids or organic solvents- in particular due to their characteristics: low volatility, high thermal stability, low vapor pressure etc. More information about the workshop and its outcomes: https://www.peacoc-h2020.eu/news/how-...
