EvaluationTier: R&D
Breakthrough technologies in research and development: selective removal of pollutants from water and selective recovery of critical metals.
Water & wastewater
Breakthrough technology to selectively remove PFAS molecules from contaminated water and wastewater streams, targeting some of the most persistent pollutants found in water today.
* PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances): a large family of synthetic chemicals known as “forever chemicals”, because they barely break down in the environment.
Critical metals
Breakthrough technology to selectively extract and/or recover Nb, a critical raw material for modern steelmaking.
* Nb (niobium): a rare metal used to make advanced high-strength steels (AHSS), which allow lighter and stronger vehicles and structures.
Tier: Pre-Seed
Concept-stage ventures developed within the group, open to early investors under NDA.
Concept
ConceptMaturity
Every venture shows the readiness level approved by the group, and each figure is labelled as a documented result, a design target or an industry benchmark.
Research and proof of concept: the principle is shown in the laboratory.
Validation and pilot: the technology is validated in the laboratory and then in a relevant environment, at increasing scale.
Demonstration and commercial operation: proven in the operating environment.
