Platinum group metals (PGMs) are critical raw materials essential in diverse industries, including automotive catalytic converters, jewelry, glassware, petrochemical refining, electronics, and healthcare sectors like pharmaceuticals and dental implants. Primarily sourced through the mining of PGM ores, they constitute about 70% of the global PGM supply, with South Africa and Russia accounting for 85% of this production. This concentration in supply can lead to price gouging and market monopoly. Recycling PGMs from waste not only mitigates the supply shortfall but also reduces environmental impacts compared to mining. However, conventional recycling methods are energy-intensive, requiring temperatures around 1500°C, and involve costly downstream processing to treat waste. Furthermore, the high processing temperatures result in high-value raw materials being burnt and releasing harmful toxins. The technology owner has developed a novel biorecovery method that incorporates and modifies a series of biochemical and biological processes into a streamlined 3-stage process as opposed to the multi-tiered stages of current conventional methods used in industry. It offers the following advantages over the competition: Energy Efficiency: consumes 6x less energy than traditional methods Cost Effective: 3x cheaper in operation cost High Yield: capable of recovering multiple PGM simultaneously with high yield even from low-grade waste Sustainability: support company decarbonization goals by offering a truly green and sustainable recycling manner for spent catalyst

This technology uses Machine Learning and AI algorithms to identify what appliances get plugged in to a building and when they are wasting energy. Plug Power represents 40% of the energy in a commercial building. Half of this energy is wasted with appliances left on when nobody is in the building. When wasted energy is found the plugs automatically switch off the appliances wasting energy and turn them back on before people return to the building. The technology not only saves energy and carbon emissions but makes buildings safer by detecting and preventing unsafe energy loads as well as reporting on occupancy and enabling behavioural change with occupants. The technology provider is seeking collaboration partners among businesses operating commercial buildings that utilize plug sockets — particularly those with multiple locations and high energy-consuming appliances. Potential partners include, but are not limited to, retail chains, F&B chains, the hospitality industry, healthcare facilities, education and training centres, and fitness and wellness chains.

Manufacturing plants constantly seek opportunities to save energy, reduce cost, and be more environmentally sustainable. However, achieving these goals is complex often requires heavy expenditure in the form of hiring teams of experienced engineers, who then perform cost-reduction tasks manually - this method is time-consuming, costly, and prone to inaccuracies due to the complexity of manufacturing operations. This technology offer provides an Artificial Intelligence (AI) powered software platform with co-pilot system that monitors and optimise energy consumption, carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, and operational expenditures (OPEX) in real-time. The AI co-pilot builds a virtual cognitive model (digital twin) of a physical asset, e.g. a manufacturing plant or a piece of machinery. Simulations are carried out on the model to predict operational inefficiency i.e. high energy usage, equipment breakdown, etc, and improvement opportunities. Upon detection of inefficiencies, the AI co-pilot will suggest the best operating parameters to resolve the inefficiency.
