Critical Materials Recycling (CMR) was founded in 2021 and is headquartered in Boone, lowa. CMR is a leading rare earth recycling technology company, commercializing a patented Acid-Free Dissolution Recycling (“ADR”) technology from the Critical Materials Institute at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Ames National Laboratory. CMR produces a rare earth oxide from sources such as hard disc drives, magnet swarf and other end of life magnet materials.
The US alone generates more than 15.25 billion pounds of electronic waste each year. A large portion of the rare earth elements and critical materials contained in this e-waste is not being recovered. It is our mission to use our new Acid-Free Dissolution Recycling (ADR) process to selectively recover these essential materials in an environmentally friendly way and without affecting the rest of the recycling process.
Our process was developed by avoiding the use of acids or other environmentally harmful chemicals and techniques. A clean, environmentally friendly solution will continue to be our focus into the future as the world’s need for critical materials increases.
