Transforming Critical Mineral Recovery with Molecular Precision

Recovering 20+ critical minerals from waste and mining feedstocks - faster, cleaner, and at lower cost than ever before.

A Global Mineral Shortage Is Holding Back the Energy Transition

Demand for critical minerals is soaring, yet 80% of U.S. supply still comes from abroad. Traditional refining is slow, centralized, and energy-intensive, preventing domestic independence. ChemFinity is changing that.

A More Efficient Way to Refine Minerals – Sorbent Filters Tuned at the Atom-Scale

Built on breakthroughs in materials chemistry, our technology achieves record recovery performances at room temperature — no smelting, no bulky and complex equipment.

Collect

Waste and mining feedstocks or process on site

Dissolve

Solid feedstocks into liquid form

Separate

Minerals using ChemFinity’s selective sorbents

Produce

High-purity recovered minerals

Deliver

Cheap, clean, domestic minerals

Compared to traditional refining, ChemFinity’s systems enable unprecedented efficiency and scalability. Our modular units can be deployed near feedstock sources - reducing costs, emissions, and time-to-market for critical minerals.
