Yes, but not a public or substantial player. Small and innovative though.
About Watercycle Technologies:
Watercycle Technologies is a UK-based climate tech company pioneering sustainable and circular critical mineral recovery essential for a NetZero future, creating clean drinkable water in the process. It is initially focused on two areas critical to lithium production and creating a circular economy for the global energy transition, Direct Lithium Extraction and Crystallisation (DLECâĒ) and the recycling of spent lithium-ion batteries and black mass (shredded batteries), working alongside major lithium producers globally. Watercycle Technologiesâ scalable, modular technology delivers dramatic reductions in costs and has a reduced environmental impact than other processes available. Itâs patented advanced membranes and filtration systems can also be applied to the extraction of other critical minerals and metals from all types of water, including wastewater.
Based at the Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre in Manchester, (GEIC), Watercycle Technologies is a spin-out of the University of Manchester and is backed by business accelerator Aer Ventures.
