Advanced Recovery and Rare Earth Capture at Scale

This white paper outlines a groundbreaking program for recovering rare earth elements (REEs) from end-of-life hard disk drives, achieving high yields and significant reductions in climate impact. In collaboration with industry leaders, the project demonstrates a sustainable approach to resource recovery that enhances U.S. supply chains and addresses environmental challenges. Key findings include a 95% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions compared to virgin mining and the potential for 90% recov
