Supercritical Materials licensed by US DoE for seawater uranium extraction

Original: Supercritical Materials has an exclusive licence from the US DoE for a patented system to extract uranium from the world

Supercritical Materials has secured an exclusive licence from the US Department of Energy for a patented system that extracts uranium from seawater. The oceans hold vast quantities of diluted uranium, and the technology could offer an effectively unlimited fuel supply for nuclear power, independent of traditional mining. Discussion centers on whether the process can be made commercially viable at scale.

Why now: Nuclear energy interest is growing, and a technology promising uranium from seawater addresses long-term fuel supply concerns.
