Iondrive Secures $4M for US E-Waste Recycling Expansion

The move strengthens Iondrive’s market position and supports its applications for US Government grants.

SEATTLE (Scrap Monster): Iondrive Limited has successfully raised $4 million through a share placement to advance its e-waste recycling initiatives in the USA. The funds will be used to commercialize Iondrive’s IONSolv technology, focusing on processing end-of-life permanent magnets to recover rare-earth oxides. This initiative aims to reduce North America’s reliance on imported REOs and complements Iondrive’s ongoing efforts in battery and solar panel recycling. The company has signed a binding agreement with Colt Recycling LLC to provide mixed e-waste feedstock, and is progressing with a techno-economic assessment for a modular recycling plant. The move strengthens Iondrive’s market position and supports its applications for US Government grants.
