A team of researchers from Nanyang Technological University (NTU) in Singapore is partnering with several companies to develop a revolutionary process that harnesses microbes to recycle spent ...

Tiny organisms could help solve the massive pollution caused by mining. Growing microbes on toxic mine waste could help companies capture pollutants while meeting the rising demand for critical ...

Researchers have developed a new mining technique which uses microbes to recover metals and store carbon in the waste produced by mining. Adopting this technique of reusing mining waste, called ...

If you were to stack up all the electronic waste produced annually around the world it would weigh as much as all the commercial aircrafts ever produced, or 5,000 Eiffel towers. This is a growing ...

Microbial communities inhabiting acid mine drainage (AMD) and those driving bioleaching processes play a pivotal role in both natural biogeochemical cycling and engineered metal recovery systems.

E-waste specialist Bioscope Technologies has signed up Techbuyer, which refurbishes and resells servers and other data center equipment, as an early adopter of its novel bioleaching solution.
