Sea4value - Mining value from brines

Novel technologies
in seawater desalination plants to extract minerals and metals from seawater brines

Sea4Value brings together 16 partners from Spain, Germany, Italy, Belgium, Ukraine, Netherlands, Finland and Switzerland to develop and upscale technologies to sustainably mine raw materials from brines.

10 extracted minerals / metals

The main focus will be on separating, concentrating and crystallising Molybdenum, Magnesium, Scandium, Vanadium, Gallium, Boron, Indium, Lithium, Rubidium and Calcium.

10 technologies

Sea4Value will develop radical innovative technologies for pre-treatment, concentration, extraction, purification and crystallisation:

Did you know that seawater contains many minerals and metals that can be extracted and used?

In our #sea4value "brines and seawater catalogue" we collected around 150 samples from locations worldwide for example near Sagunto, Spain.

Did you know that our "brines and seawater catalogue" also contains data from China?

Magnesium is among the three most common cations in the oceans next to Sodium and Calcium.

In Tianjin, it has a concentration of 2,5 g per liter of brine.

Did you know that our #sea4value "brines and seawater catalogue" covers also the salt contents of some brines from underground mines like in Czerwionka Leszczyny, Poland?

The content of Lithium (only 1.5 mg/l) is much larger than in seawater.
