Company Overview
Descycle is a UK-based deep tech company founded in 2018 that is developing a disruptive, clean technology for the metals industry. The company's proprietary process uses a novel class of eco-friendly chemistry called Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES) to recover valuable metals from electronic waste (e-waste) and minerals. This method operates at low temperatures and ambient pressure, offering a low-carbon and low-impact alternative to traditional energy-intensive and pollutive smelting processes. Initially focusing on the e-waste market, Descycle aims to create local, circular economies for recycled metals like copper, gold, and palladium, reducing reliance on international supply chains and toxic chemicals. The company has secured significant funding, including a Series A round, to build and operate a pilot plant in Teesside, UK, with plans for commercial-scale facilities.
