Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms
Planetary Technologies Inc.
$50,000.00
Vat Leaching Optimization Study
FY 2021-22 · 2022-01-03
Summary
The goal is to research, develop and operate a new and innovative process focused on the production of hydrogen and the reduction of atmospheric CO2 via ocean alkalinity enhancement.
The Planetary Hydrogen OAC (Ocean Air Capture) technology allows for simultaneous alkalinity and sulfuric acid production in the form of diluted solutions. It is envisaged that these reagents could be used for commonly applied hydrometallurgical operations such as leaching and precipitation, respectively.
The project tests a low-cost, low-energy method for extraction of valuable metals from mine tailings for the purposes of industrial decarbonization, legacy mine site remediation and climate change mitigation.

Description (French)
L'objectif est de rechercher, de développer et d'exploiter un procédé nouveau et innovant axé sur la production d'hydrogène et la réduction du CO2 atmosphérique grâce à l'augmentation de l'alcalinité des océans. La technologie OAC (Ocean Air Capture - Capture de l'air marin) de Planetary Hydrogen permet la production simultanée d'alcalinité et d'acide sulfurique sous forme de solutions diluées. On prévoit que ces réactifs pourraient être utilisés pour des opérations hydrométallurgiques courantes telles que la lixiviation et la précipitation, respectivement. Le projet permet de tester une méthode à faible coût et à faible consommation d'énergie pour l'extraction de métaux précieux des résidus miniers, et ce, à des fins de décarbonisation industrielle, d'assainissement d'anciens sites miniers et d'atténuation des changements climatiques.
