Result description
The VALORE project will bring the innovation to an industrial relevant level (TRL7) by connecting players in the whole material value chain: from processing (MYTILINEOS, MEAB) over production (BASF, VITO) and recycling (VITO, KTH). MEAB will engineer a V/Ga extraction pilot in an industrial alumina refinery (MYTILINEOS) integrating the new sorbent developed (by VITO) and produced at pilot scale (by BASF). KTH will purify the recovered V and refine to meet the requirements for its use in clean power applications.

R&D, Technology and Innovation aspects
- Develop hydrometallurgical process for recovery of V and Ga as by-products from an alumina refinery based on the ion-exchange material showing superior selectivity and stability.
- Pilot scale production will be done in an industrial environment at MYTILINEOS.
