Biomimetic Technology for Advanced Metals Separation & Extraction Technology Overview MR3 Systems, Inc., is a Metals Technology Business, which uses its proprietary process to chemically process precious metals ores, hazardous wastes and other complex metals sources into pure metals and specialty chemical products. MR3 is a market leader in Biomimetic Technology, which refers to those processes that "mimic nature." MR3's Technology originates from research in Microbiology. MR3's scientists have synthesized the process in which individual cells separated and extract the various nutrient metals required for cellular life. The MR3 Technology is an automated, modular waste decontamination and metal reclamation system which integrates specialized, proprietary media with a unique hydrometallurgical chemical process to remediate a comprehensive range of toxic, metal bearing industrial wastes by selectively extracting and purifying individual metal fractions. The revolutionary aspect of the MR3 System is its unprecedented affinity and selectivity for an individual target metal, even in multiple metal ion environments. For example, when used to treat a typical electroplating metal hydroxide sludge containing copper, nickel, chromium, and zinc, the MR3 System will target, isolate, and extract each specific metal individually, regardless of their relative concentrations to one another. This unique capability represents a quantum leap over traditional waste treatment technologies, such as ion exchange, precipitation, and reverse osmosis; all of which are saddled by high costs and prohibitively limited selectivity.
