Radify Metals' new plasma reactor technology promises pollution-free processing of rare earth elements, potentially challenging China's market dominance. The innovative process uses plasma to strip oxygen from metal oxides, producing pure metals with water vapor as the only waste. This addresses a critical, overlooked step in the supply chain. Radify has raised nearly $3 million and aims to produce kilograms of pure metal daily, with plans for a pilot reactor capable of 100 kilograms per day.
