Throughput-first Mineral Recovery

​Structured sorbent media engineered for high-flow capture and rapid regeneration in harsh process chemistries.

Retrofit module deployment in existing circuits.

Plant-Relevant Flow Without Resin Bed Bottlenecks

Conventional Beads

diffusion-limited → high residence time → pressure drop → low throughput

​​​​​

Higher pump energy and larger equipment needed to scale.

vs

Scale's Structured Media

short diffusion paths + controlled hydraulics → throughput + lower pumping penalty​​

Lower pumping penalty enables compact, retrofit deployment.

The Scale Box - Modular Solid-Phase Extraction 

The Scale Box is a modular platform designed to deploy and leverage Scale’s reusable sorbent media in real-world environments.

 

It enables rapid on-site testing, performance verification, and integration with existing process streams.

Deployment Concepts:

​Scale’s Technology +
Traditional Mining =
More Minerals

​Enable additional mineral recovery from existing operations:

In-line recovery from tailings and process waste

Reprocessing of legacy ponds and heaps

Last mile refinement of mineral concentrates

Scale’s Technology +
Non-traditional Sources =
Reliable, Domestic Recovery of Critical Minerals

Recover Minerals From:

✔ Coal ash

✔ Waste-to-energy ash

✔ Acid mine drainage

✔ Abandoned mine lands
