Biomolecular and Hybrid Strategies for Critical Materials Recovery

Crysten Blaby-Haas, Behzad Rad, Setsuko Wakao, Anne Glaesener

This symposium will explore innovative strategies for critical materials recovery. Addressing supply chain vulnerabilities, it will convene experts from diverse fields to discuss innovative bio-based, bio-inspired, and hybrid approaches for selective extraction, separation, and purification, bridging basic science research and the science of scale-up. The goal is to advance resource security and foster interdisciplinary solutions that lead to new economic opportunities.
