HYDROSHIFT - Shifting mining waters from burden to resource

Description of the granted funding

HYDROSHIFT aims to transform acid mine drainage (AMD) into a valuable resource, addressing pressing environmental and economic challenges posed by AMD. This acidic water, rich in toxic elements, contaminates ecosystems over extended periods, creating costly, long-term liabilities. HYDROSHIFT seeks to reduce AMD's impact by developing technologies for metal recovery, turning AMD into a sustainable resource aligned with circular economy goals.
