In our latest podcast, we had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Seb Leaper and Dr. Ahmed Abdelkarim, founders of Watercycle Technologies. They shared their journey from a University of Manchester spin-out to building a company that is transforming high-value resource recovery.

Watercycle Technologies' groundbreaking mineral recovery systems extract high-purity products and clean water from sub-surface brines, industrial wastewater, and end-of-life batteries. Their modular technology reduces costs, carbon emissions, and waste while delivering fresh potable water as a by-product.

Key topics include:

  •  How their innovative systems tackle water scarcity and wastewater challenges.

  •  Unique processes to recycle batteries and to recover critical minerals like lithium.

  •  The importance of strategic partnerships across the UK, Egypt, and beyond for scaling up operations.

  •  Their advocacy for improved investment frameworks to drive UK tech growth.

  •  A roadmap for full commercialisation by 2025 and 2026.

Listen to this insightful conversation as Seb and Ahmed share their journey, challenges, and vision for the future of sustainable technologies.

Thanks again, Seb and Ahmed!
