Elmery showcases groundbreaking innovations in electrifying precious metals refining at IPMI 2023 European Conference

Elmery’s CEO, Mika Paalanne, took the stage at the International Precious Metal Institute (IPMI) conference in Vienna in November 2023.

Elmery’s CEO, Mika Paalanne, took the stage at the International Precious Metal Institute (IPMI) conference in Vienna in November 2023, joining the industry leaders to discuss the future of precious metal refining technologies, including the benefits and impact of electrification. His presentation, titled ”Electrifying the Precious Metal Industry,” sparked significant interest and set the stage for continued discussions at the IPMI 2024 conferences.

There are relevant challenges that drive the search for innovation in the field:

  • The current hydrometallurgical methods for refining precious metals heavily depend on chemicals. 
  • The industry is increasingly seeking more sustainable yet cost-effective alternatives. 
  • As the world transitions towards electrification, the industry is called upon to develop new low-energy solutions for metal refining that are beginning to emerge. 

Elmery offers technology designed to meet business needs. By selectively extracting precious metals in a way that reduces reliance on expensive chemicals and improves recovery rates, our solutions help reduce operating costs and increase profitability. Partnering with us means striving for sustainable production, while also achieving greater financial results.

Elmery is at the forefront of the green transition, not only by offering more efficient and sustainable technology but also taking the selectivity on the refining and recovery of platinum group metals to the next level in the industry, which are essential to ensure a bright future for the hydrogen economy. The technology is versatile, functioning effectively across the entire pH range, solution types, and metal concentrations, and it delivers high recovery rates even from complex solutions
