Aqua Metals Inc. which is developing what it describes as a nonpollutive electrochemical lead recycling technology called AquaRefining, has established its new global headquarters in Alameda, California.
The company says the new facility will include engineering and design laboratories, offices and an assembly line for AquaRefining modules. After completing tenant improvements, Aqua Metals plans to begin production of the first AquaRefining modules in the fourth quarter of 2015.
“We co-located our headquarters, including engineering and design, with the assembly line to create the most efficient, cost effective and high-quality product possible,” says Selwyn Mould, COO of Aqua Metals. "At full production, the Alameda facility will have the capacity to manufacture up to 160 modules per year. This is equivalent to 10 AquaRefineries the size of our first facility, which we are building in the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center in McCarran, Nevada.”
The company’s new address is 1010 Atlantic Avenue, Alameda, California.
