Research Projects

The expertise of our group consists in developing new sustainable, environmentally-responsible processes for the metals/minerals industry while at the same time studying the fundamentals of aqueous processes and engineering principles.

The scope of our research projects encompasses:

  • Industrial water chemistry;
  • Hydrometallurgy and bio-hydrometallurgy;
  • Chemical modeling of electrolyte systems via the OLI™ software;
  • Scale abatement in industrial reactors;
  • Focus metals: nickel, cobalt, gold, calcium, magnesium, rare earths (lanthanides);
  • Recycling and cleaning of inorganic wastes;
  • Development of industrial sensors for acid and Redox monitoring at low and high temperature.
