Participant role
Urban miners / advanced material recovery
Recovers critical, precious and rare-earth materials from e-scrap, printed circuit boards and battery black mass using processes beyond mechanical shred-and-sort: hydrometallurgy, solvent extraction, electrowinning, bioleaching, direct cathode recycling and similar. The defining feature is chemical or biological separation applied to secondary feedstock.
How this role is defined
- Qualifying activities
- operating or piloting a hydrometallurgical, bioleaching or comparable recovery process; producing intermediate or final critical-material products from e-scrap or black mass; operating a demonstration or commercial plant on that basis.
- Does not qualify alone
- mechanical shredding and sorting; conventional pyrometallurgical smelting; licensing the technology to others without operating it.
- Boundary vs C08
- C08 is the traditional furnace and refinery route.
- Boundary vs C05
- C05 stops at sorted fractions and concentrates.
- B2B scope
- business-to-business only. Activity sold to individual consumers or households never supports this role; a company serving both is admitted on its business-facing evidence alone, with the consumer channel recorded as an attribute of the company, never as grounds for a role.
